[Kevin Traynor]

Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to stable release 21.11.2

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 05/30/22. 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:

Subject: [PATCH] net/bnxt: fix freeing VNIC filters

[ upstream commit 2df7dfffe3dc5d6b65c77a7fbe155e38a9e3dc24 ]

In bnxt_free_all_filters(), all the filters attached to a vnic are removed.
But each of these filters hold a backreference ptr to the vnic and they
need to be reset to NULL now. Otherwise, during a normal testpmd quit, as
part of dev_close_op(), first bnxt_free_all_filters() is invoked in
dev_stop, followed by bnxt_free_filter_mem() from bnxt_uninit_resources(),
which finds a filter with a vnic back reference ptr and now
bnxt_hwrm_clean_up_l2_filter() also tries to remove the filter from the
vnic's filter list which was already done as part of
bnxt_free_all_filters().

Fixes: f0f6b5e6cf94 ("net/bnxt: fix reusing L2 filter")
