The patch mentioned in the `Fixes` tag removed the explicit assignment
of tx_info->xdpf to NULL with the justification that there's no need
to set tx_info->xdpf to NULL and tx_info->num_of_bufs to 0 in case
of a mapping error. Both values won't be used once the mapping function
returns an error, and their values would be overridden by the next
transmitted packet.
While both values do indeed get overridden in the next transmission
call, the value of tx_info->xdpf is also used to check whether a TX
descriptor's transmission has been completed (i.e. a completion for it
was polled).
An example scenario:
1. Mapping failed, tx_info->xdpf wasn't set to NULL
2. A VF reset occurred leading to IO resource destruction and
a call to ena_free_tx_bufs() function
3. Although the descriptor whose mapping failed was freed by the
transmission function, it still passes the check
if (!tx_info->skb)
(skb and xdp_frame are in a union)
4. The xdp_frame associated with the descriptor is freed twice
This patch returns the assignment of NULL to tx_info->xdpf to make the
cleaning function knows that the descriptor is already freed.
