Subject: [PATCH net] sfc: remove duplicate up_write on VF filter_sem
Date: Tue, 20 Jun 2017 13:08:51 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <b718af2e-5737-3d98-0f45-cfbb25d43349@solarflare.com> (raw)
Somehow two copies of the line 'up_write(&vf->efx->filter_sem);' got into
efx_ef10_sriov_set_vf_vlan(). This would put the mutex in a bad state and
cause all subsequent down attempts to hang.
Fixes: 671b53eec2ed ("sfc: Ensure down_write(&filter_sem) and up_write() are matched before calling efx_net_open()")
Signed-off-by: Edward Cree <ecree@solarflare.com>

This should probably go to stable kernels as well.
