tg3: prevent ifup/ifdown during PCI error recovery
The patch fixes race conditions between PCI error recovery callbacks and potential ifup/ifdown. First, if ifup (tg3_open) is called between tg3_io_error_detected() and tg3_io_resume() then tp->timer is armed twice before expiry. Once during tg3_open() and again during tg3_io_resume(). This results in BUG at kernel/time/timer.c:945. Second, if ifdown (tg3_close) is called between tg3_io_error_detected() and tg3_io_resume() then tg3_napi_disable() is called twice without a tg3_napi_enable between. Once during tg3_io_error_detected() and again during tg3_close(). The tg3_io_resume() then hangs on rtnl_lock(). v2: Added logging messages per Prashant's request Cc: Prashant Sreedharan <prashant@broadcom.com> Cc: Michael Chan <mchan@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by:Ivan Vecera <ivecera@redhat.com> Acked-by:
