[ Upstream commit96e97bc07e] napi_disable() makes sure to set the NAPI_STATE_NPSVC bit to prevent netpoll from accessing rings before init is complete. However, the same is not done for fresh napi instances in netif_napi_add(), even though we expect NAPI instances to be added as disabled. This causes crashes during driver reconfiguration (enabling XDP, changing the channel count) - if there is any printk() after netif_napi_add() but before napi_enable(). To ensure memory ordering is correct we need to use RCU accessors.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
