Commit Message

  The ndev was accessed on shutdown without a check if it actually exists.
This triggered the crash pasted below. This patch simply adds a check
before using ndev.

That is a good point. I will try to find out. I also don't get why free_irq is
called in the vdpa dev .free op instead of mlx5_vdpa_dev_del. Maybe I can change
that in a different refactoring.

Not quite: mlx5_vdpa_dev_del (which is a .dev_del of for struct
vdpa_mgmtdev_ops) doesn't get called on shutdown. At least that's what I see. Or
am I missing something?

as it is I have no idea whether e.g. ndev can change
between these two call sites. that would make the check
pointless.

and why do we care whether irqs are freed on shutdown?

Had to ask around a bit to find out the answer: there can be issues with kexec
IRQ allocation on some platforms. It is documented here [0] for mlx5_core.

It's quite weird. 
	 * Some platforms requiring freeing the IRQ's in the shutdown
	 * flow. If they aren't freed they can't be allocated after
	 * kexec. There is no need to cleanup the mlx5_core software
	 * contexts.

but most drivers don't have a shutdown callback how do they work then?
do you know which platforms these are?

I don't really know much about why shutdown callback is even necessary.
I guess this is to detect shutdown and do a faster cleanup than
the slow, graceful removal, just cleaning hardware resources?

There used to be bzs that requires virtio drivers to add a shutdown to
fix kexec:

Turns out that this fix (releasing the irqs on .shutdown on mlx5_core) was
required for PPC arch but only for certain mainframe systems. That's all the
info I could find.

.shutdown could be removed in mlx5_vdpa. But I notice that mlx5_core's .shutdown
kicks in from pci_device_shutdown to clean the irqs. So the irqs will still be
freed but as a side effect. Which is not good.
