[PATCH net 0/2] mlx4 bug fixes for 4.9

[Tariq Toukan]

Hi Dave,

This patchset includes 2 bug fixes:
* In patch 1 we revert the commit that avoids invoking unregister_netdev
in shutdown flow, as it introduces netdev presence issues where
it can be accessed unsafely by ndo operations during the flow.
* Patch 2 is a simple fix for a variable uninitialization issue.

Series generated against net commit:
6998cc6ec237 tipc: resolve connection flow control compatibility problem

Thanks,
Tariq.

[PATCH net 1/2] Revert "net/mlx4_en: Avoid unregister_netdev at shutdown flow"

[Tariq Toukan]

This reverts commit 9d76931180557270796f9631e2c79b9c7bb3c9fb.

Using unregister_netdev at shutdown flow prevents calling
the netdev's ndos or trying to access its freed resources.

This fixes crashes like the following:

[PATCH net 2/2] net/mlx4: Fix uninitialized fields in rule when adding promiscuous mode to device managed flow steering

[Tariq Toukan]

From: Jack Morgenstein <jackm@dev.mellanox.co.il>

In procedure mlx4_flow_steer_promisc_add(), several fields
were left uninitialized in the rule structure.
Correctly initialize these fields.
