This would cause any subsequent calls to network device operations (e.g. MTU change, channel change) to fail after the device is detached once, returning -ENODEV. Instead of returning the device instabce, we take the exit path where we call netif_device_attach() Fixes: 7b2ee50c0cd5 ("hv_netvsc: common detach logic") Signed-off-by: Mohammed Gamal <mgamal@redhat.com> --- drivers/net/hyperv/rndis_filter.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/drivers/net/hyperv/rndis_filter.c b/drivers/net/hyperv/rndis_filter.c index 6b127be..e7ca5b5 100644 --- a/drivers/net/hyperv/rndis_filter.c +++ b/drivers/net/hyperv/rndis_filter.c @@ -1288,7 +1288,7 @@ struct netvsc_device *rndis_filter_device_add(struct hv_device *dev, rndis_device->link_state ?
