Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
igb: Fix NULL pointer dereference in ethtool loopback test<br />
<br />
The igb driver currently causes a NULL pointer dereference when executing<br />
the ethtool loopback test. This occurs because there is no associated<br />
q_vector for the test ring when it is set up, as interrupts are typically<br />
not added to the test rings.<br />
<br />
Since commit 5ef44b3cb43b removed the napi_id assignment in<br />
__xdp_rxq_info_reg(), there is no longer a need to pass a napi_id to it.<br />
Therefore, simply use 0 as the last parameter.
