There is a use-after-free scenario that is:

When netif_running() is false, user set mac address or vlan tag to VF,
the xxx_set_vf_mac() or xxx_set_vf_vlan() will invoke efx_net_stop()
and efx_net_open(), since netif_running() is false, the port will not
start and keep port_enabled false, but selftest_worker is scheduled
in efx_net_open().

If we remove the device before selftest_worker run, the efx is freed,
then we will get a UAF in run_timer_softirq() like this:

I am thinking about several ways to fix the issue:

[1] In this RFC, I cancel the selftest_worker unconditionally in
efx_pci_remove().

[2] Add a test condition, only invoke efx_selftest_async_start() when
efx->port_enabled is true in efx_net_open().

[3] Move invoking efx_selftest_async_start() from efx_net_open() to
efx_start_all() or efx_start_port(), that matching cancel action in
efx_stop_port().

[4] However, I also notice that in efx_ef10_set_mac_address(), the
efx_net_open() depends on original port_enabled, but others are not,
if we change all efx_net_open() depends on old state like
efx_ef10_set_mac_address() does, the UAF can also be fixed in theory.

But I'm not sure which is better, is there any suggestions? Thanks.
