Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to stable release 21.11.1

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 02/26/22. So please
shout if anyone has objections.

Also note that after the patch there's a diff of the upstream commit vs the
patch applied to the branch. This will indicate if there was any rebasing
needed to apply to the stable branch. If there were code changes for rebasing
(ie: not only metadata diffs), please double check that the rebase was
correctly done.

Queued patches are on a temporary branch at:
https://github.com/kevintraynor/dpdk-stable

This queued commit can be viewed at:
https://github.com/kevintraynor/dpdk-stable/commit/751bca90b1e70e868e4614cfe232440a9c77695f

Thanks.

Kevin

Subject: [PATCH] common/mlx5: fix error handling in multi-class probe

[ upstream commit 8928997a1388ba1b045a55732acced4baf00b21d ]

The common drivers_probe function calls in a loop to all probe functions
for classes requested by the user. After it manages to probe them all,
it updates this on the device in the "classes_loaded" field.

If one of them fails, all those probed to it are remove using the
drivers_remove function. However, this function only releases the
classes in the "classes_loaded" field on the given device and misses the
newly probed classes.

This patch removes the condition from the release function, and ensures
that the caller function sends a more accurate parameter.

Fixes: 8a41f4deccc3 ("common/mlx5: introduce layer for multiple class drivers")
