Driver allocates "bp->rep_info" inside bnxt_init_rep_info() which is
invoked from bnxt_rep_port_probe(). But the memory is freed inside
bnxt_uninit_resources(), which is wrong. As a result, after error
recovery bp->rep_info will be NULL. The memory should have freed inside
bnxt_drv_uninit() to maintain symmetry of calls.

Fixes: 6dc83230b43b ("net/bnxt: support port representor data path")
