Description

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

net/mlx5: Update error handler for UCTX and UMEM

In the fast unload flow, the device state is set to internal error,
which indicates that the driver started the destroy process.
In this case, when a destroy command is being executed, it should return
MLX5_CMD_STAT_OK.
Fix MLX5_CMD_OP_DESTROY_UCTX and MLX5_CMD_OP_DESTROY_UMEM to return OK
instead of EIO.

This fixes a call trace in the umem release process -
