Subject: [PATCH 5.13 157/380] iavf: do not override the adapter state in the watchdog task

From: Stefan Assmann <sassmann@...nic.de>

[ Upstream commit 22c8fd71d3a5e6fe584ccc2c1e8760e5baefd5aa ]

The iavf watchdog task overrides adapter->state to __IAVF_RESETTING
when it detects a pending reset. Then schedules iavf_reset_task() which
takes care of the reset.

The reset task is capable of handling the reset without changing
adapter->state. In fact we lose the state information when the watchdog
task prematurely changes the adapter state. This may lead to a crash if
instead of the reset task the iavf_remove() function gets called before
the reset task.
In that case (if we were in state __IAVF_RUNNING previously) the
iavf_remove() function triggers iavf_close() which fails to close the
device because of the incorrect state information.

This may result in a crash due to pending interrupts.
kernel BUG at drivers/pci/msi.c:357!

The solution is to not touch the adapter->state in iavf_watchdog_task()
and let the reset task handle the state transition.
