net/mlx5: E-Switch, Use the correct error check on returned pointers
The mlx5 flow-steering API (mlx5_create_flow_table/group/rule) never returns null pointer on error. Even if it was doing that, checking for IS_ERR_OR_NULL(p) and then returning PTR_ERR(p) would have cause bugs, since PTR_ERR(NULL) --> success, crash. To make things more robust and protect against related future bugs, convert all IS_ERR_OR_NULL checks on returned values to IS_ERR. Fixes: 5742df0f7dbe ('net/mlx5: E-Switch, Introduce VST vport ingress/egress ACLs') Fixes: 86d722ad2c3b ('net/mlx5: Use flow steering infrastructure for mlx5_en') Signed-off-by: Or Gerlitz <ogerlitz@mellanox.com> Reported-by: Ilya Lesokhin <ilyal@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by: Saeed Mahameed <saeedm@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
