We're trying to re-configure the affinity unconditionally in cpu hotplug
callback. This may lead the issue during resuming from s3/s4 since

- virt queues haven't been allocated at that time.
- it's unnecessary since thaw method will re-configure the affinity.

Fix this issue by checking the config_enable and do nothing is we're not ready.

The bug were introduced by commit 8de4b2f3ae90c8fc0f17eeaab87d5a951b66ee17
(virtio-net: reset virtqueue affinity when doing cpu hotplug).

Please put 'CC: stable@kernel.org # 3.8+' in the commit.

(The specification of the stable line is poor, but that seems to be one
common method).

Cheers,
Rusty.

Not if this is going in through the net tree.

WTF?  Wow, there really *is* an FAQ: https://lwn.net/Articles/561669/

DaveM is the best maintainer I've ever known, but I abhor the idea that
every subsystem has its own incompatible variant on workflow and style.

Asking people to express 'CC: stable' in words is error-prone; if Dave
wants to filter it, he's quite capable.

Rusty.

Filtering it one time is one thing.

Potentially acting on that filter 100 or so times a day...

That's completely another.

I don't see the difference between reacting to:

> The patch were need for 3.10 and above.

And:

CC: stable@kernel.org # 3.10+

Except the latter is the standard form which everyone else uses.

Do you want awk script to turn the latter into the former?  Would that
really help?

Confused,
Rusty.

Rusty in the several years I've been operating this way, you're
the first person who seems to mind it.

To be honest I sometimes just silently deal with the stable CC:,
but it's much easier if things operate as they do now, and the
burdon is on the submitter instead of me.
