Contexts get deleted from FW when the device is down, but they are kept in SW and re-added back on open. bnxt_set_rxfh_context() apparently does not want to deal with complexity of dealing with both the device down and device up cases. This is perhaps acceptable for creating new contexts, but not being able to delete contexts makes core-driven cleanups messy. Specifically with the new RSS API core will try to delete contexts automatically after bringing the device down. Support the delete-while-down case. Skip the FW logic and delete just the driver state.

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 reStructuredText 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.
