octeontx2-af: fix a use-after-free in rvu_nix_register_reporters
The rvu_dl will be freed in rvu_nix_health_reporters_destroy(rvu_dl) after the create_workqueue fails, and after that free, the rvu_dl will be translate back through the following call chain: rvu_nix_health_reporters_destroy |-> rvu_nix_health_reporters_create |-> rvu_health_reporters_create |-> rvu_register_dl (label err_dl_health) Finally. in the err_dl_health label, rvu_dl being freed again in rvu_health_reporters_destroy(rvu) by rvu_nix_health_reporters_destroy. In the second calls of rvu_nix_health_reporters_destroy, however, it uses rvu_dl->rvu_nix_health_reporter, which is already freed at the end of rvu_nix_health_reporters_destroy in the first call. So this patch prevents the first destroy by instantly returning -ENONMEN when create_workqueue fails. In addition, since the failure of create_workqueue is the only entrence of label err, it has been integrated into the error-handling path of create_workqueue.
