Subject: nfp: fix infinite loop on umapping cleanup

From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@canonical.com>


[ Upstream commit eac2c68d663effb077210218788952b5a0c1f60e ]

The while loop that performs the dma page unmapping never decrements
index counter f and hence loops forever. Fix this with a pre-decrement
on f.
