net: marvell: prestera: fix port event handling on init
CVE: CVE-2021-47023
Component: kernel
CWE: CWE-400
Severity: Low
CVSS v3: 2.9/AV:L/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L
Release date: 2021-01-01T00:00:00+00:00

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

net: marvell: prestera: fix port event handling on init

For some reason there might be a crash during ports creation if port
events are handling at the same time  because fw may send initial
port event with down state.

The crash points to cancel_delayed_work() which is called when port went
is down.  Currently I did not find out the real cause of the issue, so
fixed it by cancel port stats work only if previous port's state was up
& runnig.

The following is the crash which can be triggered:
