[Patch V4 net 11/11] net: hns3: bugfix for rtnl_lock's range in the hclgevf_reset()
From: Huazhong Tan <hidden>
Date: 2018-10-29 22:43:05
Subsystem:
hisilicon network subsystem 3 driver (hns3), hisilicon network subsystem driver, networking drivers, the rest · Maintainers:
Jian Shen, Jijie Shao, Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds
Since hclgevf_reset_wait() is used to wait for the hardware to complete
the reset, it is not necessary to hold the rtnl_lock during
hclgevf_reset_wait(). So this patch releases the lock for the duration
of hclgevf_reset_wait().
Fixes: 6988eb2a9b77 ("net: hns3: Add support to reset the enet/ring mgmt layer")
