When configuring IPsec packet offload in tunnel mode, the driver tries
to create tunnel reformat objects unconditionally. This is incorrect,
because tunnel mode is only permitted under specific encapsulation
settings, and that decision is already made when the flow table is
created.
The offending commit attempted to block this case in the state add
path, but the check there happens too late and does not prevent the
reformat from being configured.
Fix by taking short reservations for both the eswitch mode and the
encap at the start of state setup. This preserves the block ordering
(mode --> encap) used later: the mode is blocked during RX/TX get, and
the encap is blocked during flow-table creation. This lets us fail
early if either reservation cannot be obtained, it means a mode
transition is underway or a conflicting configuration already owns
encap. If both succeed, the flow-table path later takes the ownership
and the reservations are released on exit.
Fixes: 146c196b60 ("net/mlx5e: Create IPsec table with tunnel support only when encap is disabled")

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
