[ Upstream commit 4c1ef72e9b ]
It is a serious driver defect to enable MSI or MSI-X more than once. Doing
so may panic the kernel as in the stack trace below:
Call Trace:
sysfs_add_one+0xa5/0xd0
create_dir+0x7c/0xe0
sysfs_create_subdir+0x1c/0x20

---[ end trace 11042e2848880209 ]---
Kernel panic - not syncing: stack-protector: Kernel stack is corrupted in: ffffffffa056b4fa
We want to keep the WARN_ON() and stack trace so the driver can be fixed,
but we can avoid the kernel panic by returning an error. We may still get
warnings like this:
Call Trace:
pci_enable_msix+0x3c9/0x3e0

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. 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.
