From 681dbd710779e8b8d5bae926f6b11f30df70638b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Michael Chan Date: Fri, 14 Aug 2009 15:49:46 +0000 Subject: cnic: Fix locking in start/stop calls. The slow path ulp_start and ulp_stop calls to the bnx2i driver are sleepable calls and therefore should not be protected using rcu_read_lock. Fix it by using mutex and setting a bit during these calls. cnic_unregister_device() will now wait for the bit to clear before completing the call.
