This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled net: hns3: initialize reset_timer before hclgevf_misc_irq_init() to the 6.12-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: net-hns3-initialize-reset_timer-before-hclgevf_misc_.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.12 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 34ff64427f84bcaccf25068d43a2868295d47c7d Author: Jian Shen <shenjian15@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon Jan 6 22:36:40 2025 +0800 net: hns3: initialize reset_timer before hclgevf_misc_irq_init() [ Upstream commit 247fd1e33e1cd156aabe444e932d2648d33f1245 ] Currently the misc irq is initialized before reset_timer setup. But it will access the reset_timer in the irq handler. So initialize the reset_timer earlier.
