ibmvnic: Remove VNIC_CLOSING check from pending_scrq Fix a kernel panic resulting from data access of a NULL pointer during device close. The pending_scrq routine is meant to determine whether there is a valid sub-CRQ message awaiting processing. When the device is closing, however, there is a possibility that NULL messages can be processed because pending_scrq will always return 1 even if there no valid message in the queue. It's not clear what this closing state check was originally meant to accomplish, so just remove it. Signed-off-by: Thomas Falcon <tlfalcon@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
