Title:
  Broadcom RDMA over Converged Ethernet driver bnxt_re stalling on 24.04

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  We have a set of servers, equipped with Broadcom BCM57414 NetXtreme-E
  10Gb/25Gb RDMA Ethernet Controllers.

  Booting Ubuntu 24.04 (on 6.8 kernel) on these machines leads to the
  bnxt_re driver stalling during boot, and outputting the following
  kernel log:

      bnxt_en 0000:ab:00.0: QPLIB: bnxt_re_is_fw_stalled: FW STALL Detected. 
cmdq[0xf]=0x3 waited (102721 > 100000) msec active 1
      bnxt_en 0000:ab:00.0 bnxt_re0: Failed to modify HW QP
      infiniband bnxt_re0: Couldn't change QP1 state to INIT: -110
      infiniband bnxt_re0: Couldn't start port
      bnxt_en 0000:ab:00.0 bnxt_re0: Failed to destroy HW QP

  This causes systemd-udev-settle.service to fail:

      udevadm[1212]: Timed out for waiting the udev queue being empty.

  After this point, if the machine is PXE booting and/ or provisioning
  via MaaS (which is the case), the provisioning basically fails.

  The current workaround is to disable RDMA in the BIOS, thus avoiding loading 
bnxt_re, I believe.
  This behavior doesn't seem to affect Ubuntu 22.04 with 5.15 kernel.
