Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

idpf: fix max_vport related crash on allocation error during init

Set adapter->max_vports only after successful allocation of vports, netdevs
and vport_config buffers. This fixes possible crashes on reset or rmmod,
following failed allocation on init
