Subject: [net 02/13] net/mlx5: LAG, fix logic over MLX5_LAG_FLAG_NDEVS_READY

From: Eli Cohen <elic@...dia.com>

Only set MLX5_LAG_FLAG_NDEVS_READY if both netdevices are registered.
Doing so guarantees that both ldev->pf[MLX5_LAG_P0].dev and
ldev->pf[MLX5_LAG_P1].dev have valid pointers when
MLX5_LAG_FLAG_NDEVS_READY is set.

The core issue is asymmetry in setting MLX5_LAG_FLAG_NDEVS_READY and
clearing it. Setting it is done wrongly when both
ldev->pf[MLX5_LAG_P0].dev and ldev->pf[MLX5_LAG_P1].dev are set;
clearing it is done right when either of ldev->pf[i].netdev is cleared.

Consider the following scenario:
1. PF0 loads and sets ldev->pf[MLX5_LAG_P0].dev to a valid pointer
2. PF1 loads and sets both ldev->pf[MLX5_LAG_P1].dev and
   ldev->pf[MLX5_LAG_P1].netdev with valid pointers. This results in
   MLX5_LAG_FLAG_NDEVS_READY is set.
3. PF0 is unloaded before setting dev->pf[MLX5_LAG_P0].netdev.
   MLX5_LAG_FLAG_NDEVS_READY remains set.

Further execution of mlx5_do_bond() will result in null pointer
dereference when calling mlx5_lag_is_multipath()

This patch fixes the following call trace actually encountered:
