[SRU][F][PATCH 1/1] mlxsw: spectrum_acl_tcam: Fix NULL pointer dereference in error path

From: Ido Schimmel <idosch at nvidia.com>

When calling mlxsw_sp_acl_tcam_region_destroy() from an error path after
failing to attach the region to an ACL group, we hit a NULL pointer
dereference upon 'region->group->tcam' [1].

Fix by retrieving the 'tcam' pointer using mlxsw_sp_acl_to_tcam().

(backported from commit efeb7dfea8ee10cdec11b6b6ba4e405edbe75809 linux-stable)
[jianhuilee: although efeb7dfea8ee can be applied cleanly, it lacks the
wrapper mlxsw_sp_acl_to_tcam() introduced in 74cbc3c03c82 linux-stable,
which includes additional changes that are unnecessary for our use. a
more suitable approach would be to backport mlxsw_sp_acl_to_tcam()
within this patch.]
