[PATCH] net/mlx5e: Fix freeing of unassigned pointer

[Alex Dewar]

Commit ff7ea04ad579 ("net/mlx5e: Fix potential null pointer dereference")
added some missing null checks but the error handling in
mlx5e_alloc_flow() was left broken: the variable attr is passed to kfree
although it is never assigned to and never needs to be freed in this
function. Fix this.
