If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Jack Morgenstein commit ceb7decb366591e9b67d70832e07f5d240572a3d upstream. lockdep warns about taking a hard-irq-unsafe lock (sriov->id_map_lock) inside a hard-irq-safe lock (sriov->going_down_lock). Since id_map_lock is never taken in the interrupt context, we can simply reverse the order of taking the two spinlocks, thus avoiding the warning and the depencency.
