[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2 8/8] ipc: fix net/mlx5 memleak

[Herakliusz Lipiec]

When sending synchronous IPC requests, the caller must free the response 
buffer even if the request returned failure. Fix the code to correctly 
use the IPC API.

Bugzilla ID:228
Fixes: 9a8ab29b84d3 ("net/mlx5: replace IPC socket with EAL API")
Fixes: c18cf501a7af ("net/mlx5: enable secondary process to register DMA memory")
