[Intel-wired-lan] [PATCH] iwl-net: ice: fix locking in ice_dcb_rebuild()

[Intel-wired-lan] [PATCH] iwl-net: ice: fix locking in ice_dcb_rebuild()

[Bart Van Assche via Intel-wired-lan]

Move the mutex_lock() call up to prevent that DCB settings change after
the first ice_query_port_ets() call. The second ice_query_port_ets()
call in ice_dcb_rebuild() is already protected by pf->tc_mutex.

This also fixes a bug in an error path, as before taking the first
"goto dcb_error" in the function jumped over mutex_lock() to
mutex_unlock().

This bug has been detected by the clang thread-safety analyzer.

nit:
I believe the subject should be 
  [PATCH iwl-net] ice: fix locking in ice_dcb_rebuild()
since iwl-net is the target tree name.

I'd recommend to add Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org
