The intention of this patch is to refactor mailbox memory allocation and cleanup steps in one routine respectively to prevent memory leaks or memory errors related to mailbox commands. There are trivial localized fixes as well. Provide lpfc_mbox_rsrc_prep() - this routine allocates the dmabuf and the mbuf associated with it. It also catches allocation errors and returns status. Provide lpfc_mbox_rsrc_cleanup() - this routine verifies a dmabuf exists and if so releases the associated mbuf and the dmabuf memory. It then sets the ctx_buf to NULL and releases the mailbox memory to the mailbox pool.

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.
