[PATCH 4.2 127/134] IB/mlx4: Fix potential deadlock when sending mad to wire

From: Jack Morgenstein <jackm@dev.mellanox.co.il>

commit 90c1d8b6350cca9d8a234f03c77a317a7613bcee upstream.

send_mad_to_wire takes the same spinlock that is taken in
the interrupt context. Therefore, it needs irqsave/restore.

Fixes: b9c5d6a64358 ('IB/mlx4: Add multicast group (MCG) paravirtualization for SR-IOV')
