ibmvnic: improve failover sysfs entry
The current implementation relies on H_IOCTL call to issue a H_SESSION_ERR_DETECTED command to let the hypervisor to send a failover signal. However, it may not work if there is no backup device or if the vnic is already in error state, e.g., "ibmvnic 30000003 env3: rx buffer returned with rc 6". Add a last resort, that is to schedule a failover reset via CRQ command. Signed-off-by: Lijun Pan <lijunp213@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
