Usage of mutex_trylock() in ice_vc_process_vf_msg() is incorrect because message sent from VF is ignored and never processed. Use mutex_lock() instead to fix the issue. It is safe because this mutex is used to prevent races between VF related NDOs and handlers processing request messages from VF and these handlers are running in ice_service_task() context. Additionally move this mutex lock prior ice_vc_is_opcode_allowed() call to avoid potential races during allowlist access.

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.
