beiscsi_init_irqs() unwinds previously registered MSI-X handlers with
free_irq(pci_irq_vector(pcidev, i), &phwi_context->be_eq[j]). The IRQ
number should match the rollback slot j, not the current loop index i.
Using i passes the wrong IRQ/dev_id pair and leaves earlier handlers
registered on failure.

Use j for pci_irq_vector() in the rollback loop.

[Severity: High]
This isn't a bug introduced by this patch, but the MSI-X fallback logic
completely breaks the driver on MSI-X allocation failure and disables
multiqueue on success.

In be2iscsi_enable_msix(), if pci_alloc_irq_vectors_affinity() fails (returns
< 0), the code incorrectly sets phba->num_cpus = nvec - 1:

drivers/scsi/be2iscsi/be_main.c:be2iscsi_enable_msix() {
    ...
		if (pci_alloc_irq_vectors_affinity(phba->pcidev, 2, nvec,
				PCI_IRQ_MSIX | PCI_IRQ_AFFINITY, &desc) < 0) {
			phba->num_cpus = nvec - 1;
			return;
		}
	}

	phba->num_cpus = 1;
}

The driver then falls back to INTx and provisions multiple event queues, but
the INTx handler be_isr() is hardcoded to only process be_eq[0]:

drivers/scsi/be2iscsi/be_main.c:be_isr() {
    ...
	pbe_eq = &phwi_context->be_eq[0];

	eq = &phwi_context->be_eq[0].q;
    ...
}

Any I/O submitted to other queues will time out and hang. Conversely, if
allocation succeeds (returns > 0), the code skips the error branch and
unconditionally executes phba->num_cpus = 1, artificially restricting the
driver to 1 I/O queue and effectively disabling multiqueue.

Is it possible to correct the logic so the driver does not hang on fallback
and properly utilizes multiqueue on success?

[Severity: Critical]
This is a pre-existing issue, but I noticed a potential problem in
be2iscsi_enable_msix() while reviewing this code.

Is the logic for handling the return value of
pci_alloc_irq_vectors_affinity() inverted?

drivers/scsi/be2iscsi/be_main.c:be2iscsi_enable_msix() {
	if (pci_alloc_irq_vectors_affinity(phba->pcidev, 2, nvec,
			PCI_IRQ_MSIX | PCI_IRQ_AFFINITY, &desc) < 0) {
		phba->num_cpus = nvec - 1;
		return;
	}
	...
	phba->num_cpus = 1;
}

If allocation fails, phba->num_cpus is set up to nvec - 1. Could this
cause an out-of-bounds write on the 64-element be_eq array later in
beiscsi_enable_port()?

drivers/scsi/be2iscsi/be_main.c:beiscsi_enable_port() {
	for (i = 0; i < phba->num_cpus; i++) {
		pbe_eq = &phwi_context->be_eq[i];
		irq_poll_init(&pbe_eq->iopoll, be_iopoll_budget, be_iopoll);
	}
}

[Severity: High]
This is also a pre-existing issue, but I have a question about the error
recovery path in beiscsi_disable_port().

When msix_enabled is false, mcc_work is queued on be_eq[0]. Does this
code fail to cancel the active work because it uses the leftover loop
counter 'i'?

drivers/scsi/be2iscsi/be_main.c:beiscsi_disable_port() {
	if (!unload && beiscsi_hba_in_error(phba)) {
		pbe_eq = &phwi_context->be_eq[i];
		cancel_work_sync(&pbe_eq->mcc_work);
	}
}

Could this result in a use-after-free when the hardware queues are
subsequently destroyed?
