Subject: [PATCH 5.2 085/124] ibmvnic: Do not process reset during or after device removal

From: Thomas Falcon <tlfalcon@...ux.ibm.com>

[ Upstream commit 36f1031c51a2538e5558fb44c6d6b88f98d3c0f2 ]

Currently, the ibmvnic driver will not schedule device resets
if the device is being removed, but does not check the device
state before the reset is actually processed. This leads to a race
where a reset is scheduled with a valid device state but is
processed after the driver has been removed, resulting in an oops.

Fix this by checking the device state before processing a queued
reset event.
