Subject: CVE-2021-46914: ixgbe: fix unbalanced device enable/disable in suspend/resume

Description
===========

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

ixgbe: fix unbalanced device enable/disable in suspend/resume

pci_disable_device() called in __ixgbe_shutdown() decreases
dev->enable_cnt by 1. pci_enable_device_mem() which increases
dev->enable_cnt by 1, was removed from ixgbe_resume() in commit
6f82b2558735 ("ixgbe: use generic power management"). This caused
unbalanced increase/decrease. So add pci_enable_device_mem() back.

Fix the following call trace.

  ixgbe 0000:17:00.1: disabling already-disabled device

Mitigation
==========

The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest
stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes.  Individual
changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel
release.  Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or
supported by the Linux kernel community at all.  If however, updating to
the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this
issue can be found at these commits:
