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

ice: fix vsi->txq_map sizing

The approach of having XDP queue per CPU regardless of user's setting
exposed a hidden bug that could occur in case when Rx queue count differ
from Tx queue count. Currently vsi->txq_map's size is equal to the
doubled vsi->alloc_txq, which is not correct due to the fact that XDP
rings were previously based on the Rx queue count. Below splat can be
seen when ethtool -L is used and XDP rings are configured:

Fix this by taking into account the value that num_possible_cpus()
yields in addition to vsi->alloc_txq instead of doubling the latter.
