Subject: [PATCH 5.8 084/124] net/mlx5: Fix a race when moving command interface to polling mode

From: Eran Ben Elisha <eranbe@...lanox.com>

[ Upstream commit 432161ea26d6d5e5c3f7306d9407d26ed1e1953e ]

As part of driver unload, it destroys the commands EQ (via FW command).
As the commands EQ is destroyed, FW will not generate EQEs for any command
that driver sends afterwards. Driver should poll for later commands status.

Driver commands mode metadata is updated before the commands EQ is
actually destroyed. This can lead for double completion handle by the
driver (polling and interrupt), if a command is executed and completed by
FW after the mode was changed, but before the EQ was destroyed.

Fix that by using the mlx5_cmd_allowed_opcode mechanism to guarantee
that only DESTROY_EQ command can be executed during this time period.
