mlxsw: spectrum_acl_tcam: Fix memory leak when canceling rehash work 

[ Upstream commit fb4e2b70a7 ]

The rehash delayed work is rescheduled with a delay if the number of
credits at end of the work is not negative as supposedly it means that
the migration ended. Otherwise, it is rescheduled immediately.

After "mlxsw: spectrum_acl_tcam: Fix possible use-after-free during
rehash" the above is no longer accurate as a non-negative number of
credits is no longer indicative of the migration being done. It can also
happen if the work encountered an error in which case the migration will
resume the next time the work is scheduled.

The significance of the above is that it is possible for the work to be
pending and associated with hints that were allocated when the migration
started. This leads to the hints being leaked [1] when the work is
canceled while pending as part of ACL region dismantle.

Fix by freeing the hints if hints are associated with a work that was
canceled while pending.

Blame the original commit since the reliance on not having a pending
work associated with hints is fragile.
