From 6ef5a92cdf5ee65578a287b9a030964b03a538ed Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Yuval Mintz Date: Tue, 13 Aug 2013 02:25:03 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] bnx2x: prevent crash in shutdown flow with CNIC There might be a crash as during shutdown flow CNIC might try to access resources already freed by bnx2x. Change bnx2x_close() into dev_close() in __bnx2x_remove (shutdown flow) to guarantee CNIC is notified of the device's change of status.
