During device bringup, the driver exchanges login buffers with firmware. These buffers contain information such number of TX and RX queues alloted to the device, RX buffer size, etc. These buffers weren't being properly freed on device reset or close. We can free the buffer we send to firmware as soon as we get a response. There is information in the response buffer that the driver needs for normal operation so retain it until the next reset or removal.
