When network interface is brought up, the driver re-enables the NFC rules previously configured. However, this is done in reverse order the rules were added and hardware filters are configured differently. For example, consider the following rules: $ ethtool -N eth0 flow-type ether dst 00:00:00:00:00:AA queue 0 $ ethtool -N eth0 flow-type ether dst 00:00:00:00:00:BB queue 1 $ ethtool -N eth0 flow-type ether dst 00:00:00:00:00:CC queue 2 $ ethtool -N eth0 flow-type ether dst 00:00:00:00:00:DD queue 3 RAL/RAH registers are configure so filter index 1 has address ending with AA, filter index 2 has address ending in BB, and so on. If we bring the interface down and up again, RAL/RAH registers are configured so filter index 1 has address ending in DD, filter index 2 has CC, and so on. IOW, in reverse order we had before bringing the interface down. This issue can be fixed by traversing adapter->nfc_rule_list in backwards when restoring the rules. Since hlist doesn't support backwards traversal, this patch replaces it by list_head and fixes igc_restore_nfc_rules() accordingly.

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 Restructured Text 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.
