Commit 3968d38917eb ("bnx2x: Fix Multi-Cos.") which enabled multi-cos
feature after prolonged time in driver added some regression causing
numerous issues (sudden reboots, tx timeout etc.) reported by customers.
We plan to backout this commit and submit proper fix once we have root
cause of issues reported with this feature enabled.

 upstream more recently removed the fallback() function
 and moved to netdev_pick_tx(),
 the parentheses are left in as done in this commit.]

Is this really a backport for D? The change looks very much like the upstream
change to me...

Yes, D needs s/netdev_pick_tx/fallback/

Ah ok, missed that in the patch.

Please hold / don't apply this patch for now.

The reporter hit an apparently unrelated Oops in 3 of 40 nodes,
and it hasn't been possible yet to determine whether this patch
is at all related or at fault, due to timing/deployment matters
preventing a methodical approach to revert to a original kernel.

Since the patch is recent even in the mainline kernel, holding
it up for a bit seemed to be the most prudent action for LTSes
and thus drop the patch which would be required on Disco too.

We'll be following up on this as possible on the reporter's end.

Thanks,
Mauricio
