CVE-2025-39814

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

ice: fix NULL pointer dereference in ice_unplug_aux_dev() on reset

Issuing a reset when the driver is loaded without RDMA support, will
results in a crash as it attempts to remove RDMA's non-existent auxbus
device:
echo 1 > /sys/class/net/<if>/device/reset

BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000008
...
RIP: 0010:ice_unplug_aux_dev+0x29/0x70 [ice]
...
Call Trace:

ice_unplug_aux_dev() checks pf->cdev_info->adev for NULL pointer, but
pf->cdev_info will also be NULL, leading to the deref in the trace above.

Introduce a flag to be set when the creation of the auxbus device is
successful, to avoid multiple NULL pointer checks in ice_unplug_aux_dev().
