[PATCH 3.18 110/144] igb: Unpair the queues when changing the number of queues

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Thu Nov 08 2018 - 17:40:07 EST


3.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

[ Upstream commit 37a5d163fb447b39f7960d0534de30e88ad395bb ]

By the commit 72ddef0506da ("igb: Fix oops caused by missing queue
pairing"), the IGB_FLAG_QUEUE_PAIRS flag can now be set when changing the
number of queues by "ethtool -L", but it is never cleared unless the igb
driver is reloaded.
This patch clears it if queue pairing becomes unnecessary as a result of
"ethtool -L".
