commit a7542b8760 upstream.
While testing VF spawn/destroy the following panic occurred.
BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000029
[...]
Workqueue: i40e i40e_service_task [i40e]

Investigation revealed a race where pf->vf[vsi->vf_id].trusted may get
accessed by the watchdog via i40e_sync_filters_subtask() although
i40e_free_vfs() already free'd pf->vf.
To avoid this the call to i40e_sync_vsi_filters() in
i40e_sync_filters_subtask() needs to be guarded by __I40E_VF_DISABLE,
which is also used by i40e_free_vfs().
Note: put the __I40E_VF_DISABLE check after the
__I40E_MACVLAN_SYNC_PENDING check as the latter is more likely to
trigger.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
