When the pds_core driver was first created there were some race
conditions around using the adminq, especially for client drivers.
To reduce the possibility of a race condition there's a check
against pf->state in pds_client_adminq_cmd(). This is problematic
for a couple of reasons:
1. The PDSC_S_INITING_DRIVER bit is set during probe, but not
cleared until after everything in probe is complete, which
includes creating the auxiliary devices. For pds_fwctl this
means it can't make any adminq commands until after pds_core's
probe is complete even though the adminq is fully up by the
time pds_fwctl's auxiliary device is created.
2. The race conditions around using the adminq have been fixed
and this path is already protected against client drivers
calling pds_client_adminq_cmd() if the adminq isn't ready,
i.e. see pdsc_adminq_post() -> pdsc_adminq_inc_if_up().
Fix this by removing the pf->state check in pds_client_adminq_cmd()
because invalid accesses to pds_core's adminq is already handled by
pdsc_adminq_post()->pdsc_adminq_inc_if_up().

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.
