Consider the following scenario:
.ndo_bpf() | ice_prepare_for_reset() |
________________________|_______________________________________|
rtnl_lock() | |
ice_down() | |
| test_bit(ICE_VSI_DOWN) - true |
| ice_dis_vsi() returns |
ice_up() | |
| proceeds to rebuild a running VSI |
.ndo_bpf() is not the only rtnl-locked callback that toggles the interface
to apply new configuration. Another example is .set_channels().
To avoid the race condition above, act only after reading ICE_VSI_DOWN
under rtnl_lock.
Fixes: 0f9d5027a7 ("ice: Refactor VSI allocation, deletion and rebuild flow")

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.
