Subject: [PATCH] ice: fix VF interrupts cleanup

When a virtual function sends an IRQ map command, the PF will set up interrupts according to that request. However, because these interrupts are never reset, the next time Virtual Function initializes, the interrupts are still enabled for a given VF, which leads to performance degradation in certain cases due to interrupts being unexpectedly enabled and thus causing interrupt floods.

PATCH 1/1 ice: fix VF interrupts cleanup

From: Dawid Osuchowski <[email protected]>

[ Upstream commit fb096882095e5a8d6b5159e43793d4a38a0c5b1f ]

When a virtual function sends an IRQ map command, the PF will set up interrupts according to that request. However, because these interrupts are never reset, the next time Virtual Function initializes, the interrupts are still enabled for a given VF, which leads to performance degradation in certain cases due to interrupts being unexpectedly enabled and thus causing interrupt floods.

Fixes 1071a8358a28 ("ice: Implement virtchnl commands for AVF support")
[ changed the file path for the `ice_vf_ena_rxq_interrupt` hunk from `ice/virt/queues.c` to `ice_virtchnl.c`, which predates the upstream directory split ]
