Michal Schmidt 5a40f8af2b benet: fix BUG when creating VFs
benet crashes as soon as SRIOV VFs are created:

 kernel BUG at mm/vmalloc.c:3457!
 Oops: invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP KASAN NOPTI

be_cmd_set_mac_list() calls dma_free_coherent() under a spin_lock_bh.
Fix it by freeing only after the lock has been released.

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 reStructuredText 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.
