[ Upstream commit bd8c624c0cd59de0032752ba3001c107bba97f7b ]
VSI is set as default forwarding one when promisc mode is set for
PF interface, when PF is switched to switchdev mode or when VF
driver asks to enable allmulticast or promisc mode for the VF
interface (when vf-true-promisc-support priv flag is off).
The third case is buggy because in that case VSI associated with
VF remains as default one after VF removal.
Reproducer:
1. Create VF
echo 1 > sys/class/net/ens7f0/device/sriov_numvfs
2. Enable allmulticast or promisc mode on VF
ip link set ens7f0v0 allmulticast on
ip link set ens7f0v0 promisc on
3. Delete VF
echo 0 > sys/class/net/ens7f0/device/sriov_numvfs
4. Try to enable promisc mode on PF
ip link set ens7f0 promisc on
Although it looks that promisc mode on PF is enabled the opposite
is true because ice_vsi_sync_fltr() responsible for IFF_PROMISC
handling first checks if any other VSI is set as default forwarding
one and if so the function does not do anything. At this point
it is not possible to enable promisc mode on PF without re-probe
device.
To resolve the issue this patch clear default forwarding VSI
during ice_vsi_release() when the VSI to be released is the default
one.

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.
