<br />
This is due to that free_irq_cpu_rmap() is always being called<br />
*after* (devm_)free_irq() and thus it tries to work with IRQ descs<br />
already freed. For example, on device reset the driver frees the<br />
rmap right before allocating a new one (the splat above).<br />
Make rmap creation and freeing function symmetrical with<br />
{request,free}_irq() calls i.e. do that on ifup/ifdown instead<br />
of device probe/remove/resume. These operations can be performed<br />
independently from the actual device aRFS configuration.<br />
Also, make sure ice_vsi_free_irq() clears IRQ affinity notifiers<br />
only when aRFS is disabled -- otherwise, CPU rmap sets and clears<br />
its own and they must not be touched manually.
