[PATCH 5.8 43/99] hv_netvsc: Switch the data path at the right time during hibernation

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue Sep 29 2020 - 07:47:33 EST


From: Dexuan Cui <decui@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit de214e52de1bba5392b5b7054924a08dbd57c2f6 ]

When netvsc_resume() is called, the mlx5 VF NIC has not been resumed yet,
so in the future the host might sliently fail the call netvsc_vf_changed()
-> netvsc_switch_datapath() there, even if the call works now.

Call netvsc_vf_changed() in the NETDEV_CHANGE event handler: at that time
the mlx5 VF NIC has been resumed.

Fixes: 19162fd4063a ("hv_netvsc: Fix hibernation for mlx5 VF driver")
