Sukadev Bhattiprolu c09702f43a ibmvnic: init ->running_cap_crqs early
[ Upstream commit 151b6a5c06b678687f64f2d9a99fd04d5cd32b72 ]

We use ->running_cap_crqs to determine when the ibmvnic_tasklet() should
send out the next protocol message type. i.e when we get back responses
to all our QUERY_CAPABILITY CRQs we send out REQUEST_CAPABILITY crqs.
Similiary, when we get responses to all the REQUEST_CAPABILITY crqs, we
send out the QUERY_IP_OFFLOAD CRQ.

We currently increment ->running_cap_crqs as we send out each CRQ and
have the ibmvnic_tasklet() send out the next message type, when this
running_cap_crqs count drops to 0.

This assumes that all the CRQs of the current type were sent out before
the count drops to 0. However it is possible that we send out say 6 CRQs,
get preempted and receive all the 6 responses before we send out the
remaining CRQs. This can result in ->running_cap_crqs count dropping to
zero before all messages of the current type were sent and we end up
sending the next protocol message too early.

Instead initialize the ->running_cap_crqs upfront so the tasklet will
only send the next protocol message after all responses are received.

Use the cap_reqs local variable to also detect any discrepancy (either
now or in future) in the number of capability requests we actually send.

Currently only send_query_cap() is affected by this behavior (of sending
next message early) since it is called from the worker thread (during
reset) and from application thread (during ->ndo_open()) and they can be
preempted. send_request_cap() is only called from the tasklet  which
processes CRQ responses sequentially, is not be affected.  But to
maintain the existing symmtery with send_query_capability() we update
send_request_capability() also.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
