Hello: This series was applied to netdev/net.git (master) by David S. Miller [off-list ref]: On Fri, 29 Oct 2021 15:03:14 -0700 you wrote:
If adapter's resetting bit is on, discard the packet but don't stop the transmit queue - instead leave that to the reset code. With this change, it is possible that we may get several calls to ibmvnic_xmit() that simply discard packets and return. But if we stop the queue here, we might end up doing so just after __ibmvnic_open() started the queues (during a hard/soft reset) and before the ->resetting bit was cleared. If that happens, there will be no one to restart queue and transmissions will be blocked indefinitely. [...]
