Description

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

ice: fix 'scheduling while atomic' on aux critical err interrupt

There's a kernel BUG splat on processing aux critical error
interrupts in ice_misc_intr():

As Andrew correctly mentioned previously[0], the following call
ladder happens:

ice_misc_intr() ice_send_event_to_aux()
device_lock()
mutex_lock()
might_sleep()
might_resched()
Add a new PF state bit which indicates that an aux critical error
occurred and serve it in ice_service_task() in process context.
The new ice_pf::oicr_err_reg is read-write in both hardirq and
process contexts, but only 3 bits of non-critical data probably
aren't worth explicit synchronizing (and they're even in the same
byte [31:24]).
