Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to stable release 25.11.1

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 04/03/26. So please
shout if anyone has objections.

Also note that after the patch there's a diff of the upstream commit vs the
patch applied to the branch. This will indicate if there was any rebasing
needed to apply to the stable branch. If there were code changes for rebasing
(ie: not only metadata diffs), please double check that the rebase was
correctly done.

Queued patches are on a temporary branch at:
https://github.com/kevintraynor/dpdk-stable

This queued commit can be viewed at:
https://github.com/kevintraynor/dpdk-stable/commit/f96e778ae48461df90b4ebc55417f11ad8e98c82

Thanks.

Kevin

Subject: [PATCH] net/ice/base: fix double HW reinitialization

[ upstream commit 6d317b464e7ba5e9d674bf0dfe9ee38207495c50 ]

After downloading an alternate scheduler topology, the HW needs to be
reinitialized. Since commit b47c1229d617 ("net/ice/base: improve global
config lock behavior"), a reinitialization is done in the topology
download code itself, so we need to remove the extra initialization from
the calling code.

Fixes: b47c1229d617 ("net/ice/base: improve global config lock behavior")
