Thanks for re-sending this.
In your previous mail you referred to the call mlx4_en_destroy_netdev here: https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v4.16-rc5/source/drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx4/en_main.c#L232
While I was referring to the one below, which is always called on failures:
https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v4.16-rc5/source/drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx4/en_netdev.c#L3587
I still believe that the err_free_tx label and its while loop is redundant.
Regards, Tariq
