Even kernel panic sometimes. [Fix] If igc device is runtime suspended, it means link isn't up, so we can just report speed as -1 and duplex as unknown. [Test] $ cat /sys/class/net/*/speed Then we'll see: [ 123.449883] igc 0000:03:00.0 enp3s0: PCIe link lost, device now detached [ 123.450052] BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000008 With the fix applied, $ cat /sys/class/net/*/speed -1 [Where problems could occur] Not at all. Reading register when device is runtime suspended is just wrong. The fix prevents it from happening.
