If an error occurs, 'mlx4_en_destroy_netdev()' is called.
It then calls 'mlx4_en_free_resources()' which does the needed resources
cleanup.

So, doing some explicit kfree in the error handling path would lead to
some double kfree.

Simplify code to avoid such a case.

v1 -> v2 : rewrite the fix as explained by Tariq Toukan
           (this 2nd version may have been posted twice, once without the
           v2 tag. PLease ignore the first one)
