From d8c09f19accb89fc08b246339abb005455e4c846 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Michael Chan Date: Thu, 26 Apr 2018 17:44:41 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] bnxt_en: Reserve rings in bnxt_set_channels() if device is down. The current code does not reserve rings during ethtool -L when the device is down. The rings will be reserved when the device is later opened. Change it to reserve rings during ethtool -L when the device is down. This provides a better guarantee that the device open will be successful when the rings are reserved ahead of time.
