> When attaching XDP program on i40e driver there was a reset and rebuild of the
> interface to reconfigure the queues for XDP operation.
> If one of the steps of rebuild failed then the interface was left in incorrect state that
> could lead to a crash. If rebuild failed while getting capabilities from HW such
> crash occurs:

> capability discovery failed, err I40E_ERR_ADMIN_QUEUE_TIMEOUT aq_err OK
