bp->fw_health needs to be allocated for either the firmware initiated reset feature or the driver initiated error recovery feature. The current code is not allocating bp->fw_health for all the necessary cases. This patch corrects the logic to allocate bp->fw_health correctly when needed. If allocation fails, we clear the feature flags. We also add the the missing kfree(bp->fw_health) when the driver is unloaded. If we get an async reset message from the firmware, we also need to make sure that we have a valid bp->fw_health before proceeding.

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.
