[ Upstream commit 46a499aaf8c27476fd05e800f3e947bfd71aa724 ]
In efx_mae_enumerate_mports(), memory allocated for mae_mport_desc is passed as a argument to efx_mae_process_mport(), but when the error path in efx_mae_process_mport() gets executed, the memory allocated for desc gets leaked.
Fix that by freeing the memory allocation before returning error.
