nit: no blank line here

Slightly more importantly, although the code you are changing
was added by the cited commit, I think that the bug existed before then.
I wonder if the fixes tag should be.

Fixes: daa26ea63c6f ("Merge branch 'octeontx2-fix-bitmap-leaks-in-pf-and-vf'")

One minor comment on process: as a fix for networking code, most likely this
should be targeted at the net tree. And that should be denoted in the
subject like this:

Subject: [PATCH net] ...

And if you do post an updated version, which is probably not strictly
necessary, please be sure to observe the 24h rule.

See: https://docs.kernel.org/process/maintainer-netdev.html

The code changes themselves look good to me. Thanks.
