Simon Horman 5b33afee93 nfp: move indirect block cleanup to flower app stop callback
The indirect block cleanup may cause control messages to be sent
if offloaded flows are present. However, by the time the flower app
cleanup callback is called txbufs are no longer available and attempts
to send control messages result in a NULL-pointer dereference in
nfp_ctrl_tx_one().

This problem may be resolved by moving the indirect block cleanup
to the stop callback, where txbufs are still available.

As suggested by Jakub Kicinski and Louis Peens.

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.
