[net 2/2] net/mlx5: IPSec, Fix a race between concurrent sandbox QP commands

From: Saeed Mahameed <hidden>
Date: 2018-05-24 21:53:37
Subsystem: mellanox ethernet innova drivers, mellanox mlx5 core vpi driver, networking drivers, the rest · Maintainers: Saeed Mahameed, Leon Romanovsky, Tariq Toukan, Mark Bloch, Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

From: Yossi Kuperman <redacted>

Sandbox QP Commands are retired in the order they are sent. Outstanding
commands are stored in a linked-list in the order they appear. Once a
response is received and the callback gets called, we pull the first
element off the pending list, assuming they correspond.

Sending a message and adding it to the pending list is not done atomically,
hence there is an opportunity for a race between concurrent requests.

Bind both send and add under a critical section.
