net/mlx5: Fix health work queue spin lock to IRQ safe
spin_lock/unlock of health->wq_lock should be IRQ safe. It was changed to spin_lock_irqsave since adding commit 0179720d6be2 ("net/mlx5: Introduce trigger_health_work function") which uses spin_lock from asynchronous event (IRQ) context. Thus, all spin_lock/unlock of health->wq_lock should have been moved to IRQ safe mode. However, one occurrence on new code using this lock missed that change, resulting in possible deadlock: kernel: Possible unsafe locking scenario: kernel: CPU0 kernel: ---- kernel: lock(&(&health->wq_lock)->rlock); kernel: <Interrupt> kernel: lock(&(&health->wq_lock)->rlock); kernel: #012 *** DEADLOCK *** Fixes: 2a0165a034ac ("net/mlx5: Cancel delayed recovery work when unloading the driver") Signed-off-by: Moshe Shemesh <moshe@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by: Saeed Mahameed <saeedm@mellanox.com>
