Currently, the PF check the VF alive by the KEEP_ALVE
mailbox from VF. VF keep sending the mailbox per 2
seconds. Once PF lost the mailbox for more than 8
seconds, it will regards the VF is abnormal, and stop
notifying the state change to VF, include link state,
vf mac, reset, even though it receives the KEEP_ALIVE
mailbox again. It's inreasonable.
This patch fixes it. PF will record the state change which
need to notify VF when lost the VF's KEEP_ALIVE mailbox.
And notify VF when receive the mailbox again. Introduce a
new flag HCLGE_VPORT_STATE_INITED, used to distinguish the
case whether VF driver loaded or not. For VF will query
these states when initializing, so it's unnecessary to
notify it in this case.
Fixes: aa5c4f175b ("net: hns3: add reset handling for VF when doing PF reset")

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.
