Subject: net/mlx5: fix send to kernel action resources release
X-Git-Url: https://git.feebdaed.xyz/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=472b0994319198090e44a7c2de1e43f0a0e0a270;p=0xmirror%2Fdpdk.git

net/mlx5: fix send to kernel action resources release

In the MLX5 PMD hierarchy a flow table is bound to a domain object.
A domain object can be released if it does not reference any flow
tables.

When the PMD creates a send to kernel flow action, it also creates
a dedicated flow table for that action.

The PMD called for Rx, Tx and FDB domain destruction before it
destroyed send to kernel resources - flow action and flow table.
As a result, domain destruction could not be completed.

The patch moves send to kernel actions and tables destruction before
domain destruction.

Fixes: f31a141e6478 ("net/mlx5: add send to kernel action resource holder")
