DIM work will call the firmware to adjust the coalescing parameters on
the RX rings. We should cancel DIM work before we call the firmware
to free the RX rings. Otherwise, FW will reject the call from DIM
work if the RX ring has been freed. This will generate an error
message like this:
bnxt_en 0000:21:00.1 ens2f1np1: hwrm req_type 0x53 seq id 0x6fca error 0x2
and cause unnecessary concern for the user. It is also possible to
modify the coalescing parameters of the wrong ring if the ring has
been re-allocated.
To prevent this, cancel DIM work right before freeing the RX rings.
We also have to add a check in NAPI poll to not schedule DIM if the
RX rings are shutting down. Check that the VNIC is active before we
schedule DIM. The VNIC is always disabled before we free the RX rings.

README
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 reStructuredText 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.
