[ Upstream commit ae396d85c01c7bdc9eeceecde1f493d03f793465 ]
Currently, In NETDEV_CHANGELOWERSTATE/NETDEV_CHANGEUPPERSTATE events
handling, tracking is not fully completed if the LAG device is not ready
at the time the events occur. But, we must keep track of the upper and
lower states after receiving the events because RoCE needs this info in
mlx5_lag_get_roce_netdev() - in order to return the corresponding port
that its running on. Returning the wrong (not most recent) port will lead
to gids table being incorrect.
For example: If during the attachment of a slave to the bond, the other
non-attached port performs pci_reload, then the LAG device is not ready,
but that should not result in dismissing attached slave tracker update
automatically (which is performed in mlx5_handle_changelowerstate()), Since
these events might not come later, which can lead to both bond ports
having tx_enabled=0 - which is not a valid state of LAG bond.
Fixes: 9b412cc35f00 ("net/mlx5e: Add LAG warning if bond slave is not lag master")

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
