From: Juliet Kim <julietk@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit f9c6cea0b38518741c8dcf26ac056d26ee2fd61d ] During MTU change, the following events may happen. Client-driven CRQ initialization fails due to partner’s CRQ closed, causing client to enqueue a reset task for FATAL_ERROR. Then passive (server-driven) CRQ initialization succeeds, causing client to release CRQ and enqueue a reset task for failover. If the passive CRQ initialization occurs before the FATAL reset task is processed, the FATAL error reset task would try to access a CRQ message queue that was freed, causing an oops. The problem may be most likely to occur during DLPAR add vNIC with a non-default MTU, because the DLPAR process will automatically issue a change MTU request. Fix this by not processing fatal error reset if CRQ is passively initialized after client-driven CRQ initialization fails.
