[PATCH net 1/2] net: dsa: xrs700x: Use irqsave variant for u64 stats update

From: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@linutronix.de>
Date: 2022-08-25 11:37:16
Subsystem: arrow speedchips xrs7000 series ethernet switch driver, networking drivers, networking [dsa], the rest · Maintainers: George McCollister, Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Vladimir Oltean, Linus Torvalds

xrs700x_read_port_counters() updates the stats from a worker using the
u64_stats_update_begin() version. This is okay on 32-UP since on the
reader side preemption is disabled.
On 32bit-SMP the writer can be preempted by the reader at which point
the reader will spin on the seqcount until writer continues and
completes the update.

Assigning the mib_mutex mutex to the underlying seqcount would ensure
proper synchronisation. The API for that on the u64_stats_init() side
isn't available. Since it is the only user, just use disable interrupts
during the update.

Use u64_stats_update_begin_irqsave() on the writer side to ensure an
uninterrupted update.
