vmxnet3: ensure that adapter is in proper state during force_close
There are several paths in vmxnet3, where settings changes cause the
adapter to be brought down and back up (vmxnet3_set_ringparam among
them). Should part of the reset operation fail, these paths call
vmxnet3_force_close, which enables all napi instances prior to calling
dev_close (with the expectation that vmxnet3_close will then properly
disable them again). However, vmxnet3_force_close neglects to clear
VMXNET3_STATE_BIT_QUIESCED prior to calling dev_close. As a result
vmxnet3_quiesce_dev (called from vmxnet3_close), returns early, and
leaves all the napi instances in a enabled state while the device itself
is closed. If a device in this state is activated again, napi_enable
will be called on already enabled napi_instances, leading to a BUG halt.
The fix is to simply enausre that the QUIESCED bit is cleared in
vmxnet3_force_close to allow quesence to be completed properly on close.
