From: Kalesh AP <kalesh-anakkur.pura...@broadcom.com> Driver cancels the health check alarm only if error recovery is enabled in the FW. This can cause an issue. There is a small window where the driver receives the async event from fw and port close is invoked immediately. Driver clears BNXT_FLAG_RECOVERY_ENABLED flag when it gets the async event from FW. As a result, the health check alarm will not get canceled during port close and causes a segfault when the alarm tries to read Heartbeat register.
Fix this by cancelling the health check alarm unconditionally during port stop.
