From: Michal Kubiak <michal.kubiak@intel.com>

The commit 6533e558c650 ("i40e: Fix reset path while removing
the driver") introduced a new PF state "__I40E_IN_REMOVE" to block
modifying the XDP program while the driver is being removed.
Unfortunately, such a change is useful only if the ".ndo_bpf()"
callback was called out of the rmmod context because unloading the
existing XDP program is also a part of driver removing procedure.
In other words, from the rmmod context the driver is expected to
unload the XDP program without reporting any errors. Otherwise,
the kernel warning with callstack is printed out to dmesg.

Example failing scenario:
 1. Load the i40e driver.
 2. Load the XDP program.
 3. Unload the i40e driver (using "rmmod" command).

Fix this by improving checks in ".ndo_bpf()" to determine if that
callback was called from the removing context and if the kernel
wants to unload the XDP program. Allow for unloading the XDP program
in such a case.

Hi Tony,

After my conversation with Kuba in a separate thread, I analyzed that
patch one more time and it seems the fix can be implemented in a simpler
way, so I am going to send the v2.
Therefore, please ignore this patch.

Thanks,
Michal

I found that conversation :(

I'll drop this and re-send tomorrow.

Thanks,
Tony
