If XDP traffic runs on a CPU which is greater than or equal to
the number of the Tx queues of the NIC, then vmxnet3_xdp_get_tq()
always picks up queue 0 for transmission as it uses reciprocal scale
instead of simple modulo operation.
vmxnet3_xdp_xmit() and vmxnet3_xdp_xmit_frame() use the above
returned queue without any locking which can lead to race conditions
when multiple XDP xmits run in parallel on different CPU's.
This patch uses a simple module scheme when the current CPU equals or
exceeds the number of Tx queues on the NIC. It also adds locking in
vmxnet3_xdp_xmit() and vmxnet3_xdp_xmit_frame() functions.
Fixes: 54f00cce11 ("vmxnet3: Add XDP support.")

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.
