Description

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

libie: don't unroll if fwlog isn't supported

The libie_fwlog_deinit() function can be called during driver unload
even when firmware logging was never properly initialized. This led to call
trace:

It can be reproduced by trying to unload ixgbe driver in recovery mode.

Fix that by checking if fwlog is supported before doing unroll.
