[ Upstream commit8ee8ee7fe8] In some cases when a queue related allocation fails, successful past allocations are freed but the pointer that pointed to them is not set to NULL. This is a problem for 2 reasons: 1. This is generally a bad practice since this pointer might be accidentally accessed in the future. 2. Future allocations using the same pointer check if the pointer is NULL and fail if it is not. Fixed this by setting such pointers to NULL in the allocation of queue related objects. Also refactored the code of ena_setup_tx_resources() to goto-style error handling to avoid code duplication of resource freeing.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
