Re: [PATCH net v3 0/2] net: thunderbolt: two fixes for the failed bring-up path

Two separate defects reached through the same branch in
tbnet_connected_work(), found on an ASMedia ASM4242 host-to-host link
when the peer drops out while a connection is being brought up.

  1 releases the HopID the allocator handed out when it is not the one
    that was asked for.  Today it stays allocated for the rest of the
    XDomain connection.

  2 marks the connection down on the failure paths, so the next
    tbnet_tear_down() does not run a second teardown over work that was
    already undone: stopping rings that are already stopped, which is
    fatal under panic_on_warn, and handing back a HopID this connection
    never owned.

Patch 2 edits the lines patch 1 adds, so it has to come second.

Changes in v3:
- Cut both commit messages down after review; the code is unchanged
  apart from the comment on the new helper in patch 2, now one line.
- Link to v2: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20260810-b4-tbnet-hopid-v2-0-0eee557e75df@gmail.com/ (local)
