Cited commit introduced potential double free since encap_header can be
destroyed twice in some cases - once by error cleanup sequence in
mlx5e_tc_tun_{create|update}_header_ipv{4|6}(), once by generic
mlx5e_encap_put() that user calls as a result of getting an error from
tunnel create|update. At the same time the point where e->encap_header is
assigned can't be delayed because the function can still return non-error
code 0 as a result of checking for NUD_VALID flag, which will cause
neighbor update to dereference NULL encap_header.
Fix the issue by:
- Nulling local encap_header variables in
mlx5e_tc_tun_{create|update}_header_ipv{4|6}() to make kfree(encap_header)
call in error cleanup sequence noop after that point.
- Assigning reformat_params.data from e->encap_header instead of local
variable encap_header that was set to NULL pointer by previous step. Also
assign reformat_params.size from e->encap_size for uniformity and in order
to make the code less error-prone in the future.
