Summary
ice: fix NULL pointer dereference in ice_unplug_aux_dev() on reset
Details

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

ice: fix NULL pointer dereference in iceunplugaux_dev() on reset

Issuing a reset when the driver is loaded without RDMA support, will results in a crash as it attempts to remove RDMA's non-existent auxbus device: echo 1 > /sys/class/net/<if>/device/reset

BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000008 ... RIP: 0010:iceunplugauxdev+0x29/0x70 [ice] ... Call Trace: <TASK> iceprepareforreset+0x77/0x260 [ice] pcidevsaveanddisable+0x2c/0x70 pciresetfunction+0x88/0x130 resetstore+0x5a/0xa0 kernfsfopwriteiter+0x15e/0x210 vfswrite+0x273/0x520 ksyswrite+0x6b/0xe0 dosyscall64+0x79/0x3b0 entrySYSCALL64afterhwframe+0x76/0x7e

iceunplugauxdev() checks pf->cdevinfo->adev for NULL pointer, but pf->cdev_info will also be NULL, leading to the deref in the trace above.

Introduce a flag to be set when the creation of the auxbus device is successful, to avoid multiple NULL pointer checks in iceunplugaux_dev().
