commit a7023819404ac9bd2bb311a4fafd38515cfa71ec upstream.
This patch is meant to address possible race conditions that can exist
between network configuration and power management. A similar issue was
fixed for igb in commit 9474933caf21 ("igb: close/suspend race in
netif_device_detach").
In addition it consolidates the code so that the PCI error handling code
will essentially perform the power management freeze on the device prior to
attempting a reset, and will thaw the device afterwards if that is what it
is planning to do. Otherwise when we call close on the interface it should
see it is detached and not attempt to call the logic to down the interface
and free the IRQs again.
From what I can tell the check that was adding the check for __E1000_DOWN
in e1000e_close was added when runtime power management was added. However
it should not be relevant for us as we perform a call to
pm_runtime_get_sync before we call e1000_down/free_irq so it should always
be back up before we call into this anyway.

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.
