While doing shutdown on the PCI device, the corresponding callback function e1000e_shutdown() is trying to clear those correctable errors on the upstream P2P bridge. Unfortunately, we don't have the upstream P2P bridge under some cases (e.g. PCI-passthrou for KVM on Power). That leads to kernel crash eventually. The patch adds one more check on that to avoid kernel crash. Signed-off-by: Li Zhang <zhlcindy@gmail.com> --- drivers/net/ethernet/intel/e1000e/netdev.c | 7 +++++++ 1 file changed, 7 insertions(+)
