> Subject: [PATCH] ice: fix VF reference leak in ice_set_vf_trust()
>
> ice_get_vf_by_id() takes a reference on the VF, which the caller has
> to release with ice_put_vf(). The switchdev mode check now happens
> after the VF is looked up and returns -EOPNOTSUPP without dropping
> that reference, leaking it.
>
> Use the existing out_put_vf label instead.
>
> Fixes: 83b49e7f63da ("ice: check if VF exists before mode check")
