[PATCH net 2/3] net/mlx5: LAG, MPESW, Fix missing complete() on devcom error

From: Tariq Toukan

Date: Wed Jun 17 2026 - 02:33:07 EST


From: Shay Drory <shayd@xxxxxxxxxx>

mlx5_mpesw_work() returned without calling complete() when
mlx5_lag_get_devcom_comp() returned NULL. A caller that queued the
work and waited on mpesww->comp would block indefinitely.

Funnel the early-return path through a new "complete" label so the
waiter is always woken.

Fixes: b430c1b4f63b ("net/mlx5: Replace global mlx5_intf_lock with HCA devcom component lock")
