We have two issues that need to be addressed in our IRQ handling. One is the fact that we can end up double-freeing IRQs in the event of an exception handling error such as a PCIe reset/recovery that fails. To prevent that from becoming an issue we can use the msix_vector values to indicate that we have successfully requested/freed the IRQ by only setting or clearing them when we have completed the given action. The other issue is that we have several potential races in our IRQ path due to us manipulating the mask before the vector has been truly disabled. In order to handle that in the case of the FW mailbox we need to not auto-enable the IRQ and instead will be enabling/disabling it separately. In the case of the PCS vector we can mitigate this by unmapping it and synchronizing the IRQ before we clear the mask. The general order of operations after this change is now to request the interrupt, poll the FW mailbox to ready, and then enable the interrupt. For the shutdown we do the reverse where we disable the interrupt, flush any pending Tx, and then free the IRQ. I am renaming the enable/disable to request/free to be equivilent with the IRQ calls being used. We may see additions in the future to enable/disable the IRQs versus request/free them for certain use cases.

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.
