When the MACsec netdevice is deleted, all related Rx/Tx HW/SW
states should be released/deallocated, however currently part
of the Rx security channel association data is not cleaned
properly, hence the memory leaks.
Fix by make sure all related Rx Sc resources are cleaned/freed,
while at it improve code by grouping release SC context in a
function so it can be used in both delete MACsec device and
delete Rx SC operations.

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.
