Stefan Assmann 22c8fd71d3 iavf: do not override the adapter state in the watchdog task
The iavf watchdog task overrides adapter->state to __IAVF_RESETTING
when it detects a pending reset. Then schedules iavf_reset_task() which
takes care of the reset.

The reset task is capable of handling the reset without changing
adapter->state. In fact we lose the state information when the watchdog
task prematurely changes the adapter state. This may lead to a crash if
instead of the reset task the iavf_remove() function gets called before
the reset task.
In that case (if we were in state __IAVF_RUNNING previously) the
iavf_remove() function triggers iavf_close() which fails to close the
device because of the incorrect state information.

This may result in a crash due to pending interrupts.

The solution is to not touch the adapter->state in iavf_watchdog_task()
and let the reset task handle the state transition.

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.
