- net/mlx5: Clear port select structure when fail to create

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/mlx5: Clear port select structure when fail to create
Clear the port select structure on error so no stale values left after definers are destroyed. That's because the mlx5lagdestroydefiners() always try to destroy all lag definers in the ttmap, so in the flow below lag definers get double-destroyed and cause kernel crash:
mlx5lagportselcreate() mlx5lagcreatedefiners() mlx5lagcreatedefiner() <- Failed on tt 1 mlx5lagdestroydefiners() <- definers[tt=0] gets destroyed mlx5lagportselcreate() mlx5lagcreatedefiners() mlx5lagcreatedefiner() <- Failed on tt 0 mlx5lagdestroydefiners() <- definers[tt=0] gets double-destroyed
