BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2126876
The function mlx5_query_nic_vport_qkey_viol_cntr() calls the function
mlx5_query_nic_vport_context() but does not check its return value. This
could lead to undefined behavior if the query fails. A proper
implementation can be found in mlx5_nic_vport_query_local_lb().
Add error handling for mlx5_query_nic_vport_context(). If it fails, free
the out buffer via kvfree() and return error code.
Fixes: 9efa75254593 ("net/mlx5_core: Introduce access functions to query vport RoCE fields")
