6.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Jacob Keller <jacob.e.keller@xxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 996422e3230e41468f652d754fefd1bdbcd4604e ] The ice_ptp_extts_event() function can race with ice_ptp_release() and result in a NULL pointer dereference which leads to a kernel panic. Panic occurs because the ice_ptp_extts_event() function calls ptp_clock_event() with a NULL pointer. The ice driver has already released the PTP clock by the time the interrupt for the next external timestamp event occurs. To fix this, modify the ice_ptp_extts_event() function to check the PTP state and bail early if PTP is not ready.
