    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

    igb: Do not bring the device up after non-fatal error

    Commit 004d25060c78 (igb: Fix igb_down hung on surprise removal)
    changed igb_io_error_detected() to ignore non-fatal pcie errors in order
    to avoid hung task that can happen when igb_down() is called multiple
    times. This caused an issue when processing transient non-fatal errors.
    igb_io_resume(), which is called after igb_io_error_detected(), assumes
    that device is brought down by igb_io_error_detected() if the interface
    is up. This resulted in panic with stacktrace below.

    To fix this issue igb_io_resume() checks if the interface is running and
    the device is not down this means igb_io_error_detected() did not bring
    the device down and there is no need to bring it up.
