    mlxsw: spectrum_acl_tcam: Fix memory leak during rehash

    The rehash delayed work migrates filters from one region to another.
    This is done by iterating over all chunks (all the filters with the same
    priority) in the region and in each chunk iterating over all the
    filters.

    If the migration fails, the code tries to migrate the filters back to
    the old region. However, the rollback itself can also fail in which case
    another migration will be erroneously performed. Besides the fact that
    this ping pong is not a very good idea, it also creates a problem.

    Each virtual chunk references two chunks: The currently used one
    ('vchunk->chunk') and a backup ('vchunk->chunk2'). During migration the
    first holds the chunk we want to migrate filters to and the second holds
    the chunk we are migrating filters from.

    The code currently assumes - but does not verify - that the backup chunk
    does not exist (NULL) if the currently used chunk does not reference the
    target region. This assumption breaks when we are trying to rollback a
    rollback, resulting in the backup chunk being overwritten and leaked
    [1].

    Fix by not rolling back a failed rollback and add a warning to avoid
    future cases.
