[PATCH net 4/4] phy: phy_ethtool_ksettings_set: Lock the PHY while changing settings

From: Andrew Lunn <andrew@lunn.ch>
Date: 2021-10-24 19:48:27
Subsystem: ethernet phy library, networking drivers, the rest · Maintainers: Andrew Lunn, Heiner Kallweit, Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

There is a race condition where the PHY state machine can change
members of the phydev structure at the same time userspace requests a
change via ethtool. To prevent this, have phy_ethtool_ksettings_set
take the PHY lock.

Fixes: 2d55173e71b0 ("phy: add generic function to support ksetting support")
