wifi: ath11k: fix warning when unbinding
commit 8b7a26b6681922a38cd5a7829ace61f8e54df9b7 upstream.
If there is an error during some initialization related to firmware,
the buffers dp->tx_ring[i].tx_status are released.
However this is released again when the device is unbinded (ath11k_pci),
and we get:
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 6231 at mm/slub.c:4368 free_large_kmalloc+0x57/0x90
Call Trace:
free_large_kmalloc
ath11k_dp_free
ath11k_core_deinit
ath11k_pci_remove
...
The issue is always reproducible from a VM because the MSI addressing
initialization is failing.
In order to fix the issue, just set the buffers to NULL after releasing in
order to avoid the double free.
