ibmvnic: Ensure that buffers are NULL after free
This change will guard against a double free in the case that the buffers were previously freed at some other time, such as during a device reset. It resolves a kernel oops that occurred when changing the VNIC device's MTU. Signed-off-by: Thomas Falcon <tlfalcon@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
