> Subject: [Intel-wired-lan] [PATCH iwl-net 1/2] ice: fix inverted ready
> check for VF representors
>
> Commit 0f00a897c9fcbd ("ice: check if SF is ready in ethtool ops")
> refactored the VF readiness check into a generic repr->ops.ready()
> callback but implemented ice_repr_ready_vf() with inverted logic:
>
> return !ice_check_vf_ready_for_cfg(repr->vf);
>
> ice_check_vf_ready_for_cfg() returns 0 on success, so the negation
> makes ready() return non-zero when the VF is ready. All callers treat
> non-zero as "not ready, skip", causing ndo_get_stats64, get_drvinfo,
> get_strings and get_ethtool_stats to always bail out in switchdev
> mode.
>
> Remove the erroneous negation. The SF variant ice_repr_ready_sf() is
> already correct (returns !active, i.e. non-zero when not active).
