ocelot_port_xmit() calls ocelot_can_inject() and
ocelot_port_inject_frame() without holding the injection group lock.
Both functions contain lockdep_assert_held() for the injection lock,
and the correct caller felix_port_deferred_xmit() properly acquires
the lock using ocelot_lock_inj_grp() before calling these functions.
this v3 splits the fix into a 3-patch series to separate
refactoring from the behavioral change:
1/3: Extract the PTP timestamp handling into an ocelot_xmit_timestamp()
helper so the logic isn't duplicated when the function is split.
2/3: Split ocelot_port_xmit() into ocelot_port_xmit_fdma() and
ocelot_port_xmit_inj(), keeping the FDMA and register injection
code paths fully separate.
3/3: Add ocelot_lock_inj_grp()/ocelot_unlock_inj_grp() in
ocelot_port_xmit_inj() to fix the missing lock protection.
Patches 1-2 are pure refactors with no behavioral change.
Patch 3 is the actual bug fix.
v3:
- Split into 3-patch series per Vladimir's review
- Separate FDMA and register injection paths into distinct functions
v2:
- Added Fixes tag
