In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iavf: Fix reset error handling
Do not call iavf_close in iavf_reset_task error handling. Doing so can
lead to double call of napi_disable, which can lead to deadlock there.
Removing VF would lead to iavf_remove task being stuck, because it
requires crit_lock, which is held by iavf_close.
Call iavf_disable_vf if reset fail, so that driver will clean up
remaining invalid resources.
During rapid VF resets, HW can fail to setup VF mailbox. Wrong
error handling can lead to iavf_remove being stuck with:
