IB/IPoIB: Disable bottom half when dealing with device address
Align locking usage when touching device address with rest of the kernel. Lock the bottom half when doing so using netif_addr_lock_bh. This also solves the following case as reported by lockdep: CPU0 CPU1 ---- ---- lock(_xmit_INFINIBAND); local_irq_disable(); lock(&(&mc->mca_lock)->rlock); lock(_xmit_INFINIBAND); <Interrupt> lock(&(&mc->mca_lock)->rlock); *** DEADLOCK *** Fixes: 492a7e67 ("IB/IPoIB: Allow setting the device address") Signed-off-by: Mark Bloch <markb@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by: Leon Romanovsky <leon@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Doug Ledford <dledford@redhat.com>
