bnxt_en: Fix memory corruption when FW resources change during ifdown

Browse source

[ Upstream commit 2747328ba2 ]

bnxt_set_dflt_rings() assumes that it is always called before any TC has
been created.  So it doesn't take bp->num_tc into account and assumes
that it is always 0 or 1.

In the FW resource or capability change scenario, the FW will return
flags in bnxt_hwrm_if_change() that will cause the driver to
reinitialize and call bnxt_cancel_reservations().  This will lead to
bnxt_init_dflt_ring_mode() calling bnxt_set_dflt_rings() and bp->num_tc
may be greater than 1.  This will cause bp->tx_ring[] to be sized too
small and cause memory corruption in bnxt_alloc_cp_rings().

Fix it by properly scaling the TX rings by bp->num_tc in the code
paths mentioned above.  Add 2 helper functions to determine
bp->tx_nr_rings and bp->tx_nr_rings_per_tc.
