Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/mlx5e: Wrap the tx reporter dump callback to extract the sq
Function mlx5e_tx_reporter_dump_sq() casts its void * argument to struct
mlx5e_txqsq *, but in TX-timeout-recovery flow the argument is actually
of type struct mlx5e_tx_timeout_ctx *.
mlx5_core 0000:08:00.1 enp8s0f1: TX timeout detected

To fix this bug add a wrapper for mlx5e_tx_reporter_dump_sq() which
extracts the sq from struct mlx5e_tx_timeout_ctx and set it as the
TX-timeout-recovery flow dump callback.
