Maher Sanalla e1ed30c8c0 net/mlx5: ECPF, wait for VF pages only after disabling host PFs
Currently,  during the early stages of their unloading, particularly
during SRIOV disablement, PFs/ECPFs wait on the release of all of
their VFs memory pages. Furthermore, ECPFs are considered the page
supplier for host VFs, hence the host VFs memory pages are freed only
during ECPF cleanup when host interfaces get disabled.

Thus, disabling SRIOV early in unload timeline causes the DPU ECPF
to stall on driver unload while waiting on the release of host VF pages
that won't be freed before host interfaces get disabled later on.

Therefore, for ECPFs, wait on the release of VFs pages only after the
disablement of host PFs during ECPF cleanup flow. Then, host PFs and VFs
are disabled and their memory shall be freed accordingly.

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.

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.
