[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] eal: reset driver name pointer on failure

[Emmanuel Roullit]

The pointer set by strdup() needs to be cleared on failure to avoid a
potential double-free from the caller.

Found with clang static analysis:
lib/librte_eal/common/eal_common_devargs.c:123:2:
warning: Attempt to free released memory
        free(buf);
        ^~~~~~~~~

Fixes: 3fe2e5fec82b ("eal: fix argument parsing check")
