Updated the comment in v14.
This message header is a union of struct and u64 data.
The 'struct' has
type and length field which are used to encode & decode the message.
The 'data' field is used to read/write the message header from/to the FIFO.

Updated in v14.
It's not a memory leak since the caller will release them
in case of failures. I added one line in this function to
call the mlxbf_tmfifo_free_vrings() to be more clear.

Not needed. Updated in v14. Thanks!

Yes, updated in v14.
