bnxt_en: Don't use rtnl lock to protect link change logic in workqueue.
As a further improvement to the PF/VF link change logic, use a private mutex instead of the rtnl lock to protect link change logic. With the new mutex, we don't have to take the rtnl lock in the workqueue when we have to handle link related functions. If the VF and PF drivers are running on the same host and both take the rtnl lock and one is waiting for the other, it will cause timeout. This patch fixes these timeouts. Fixes: 90c694b ("bnxt_en: Fix RTNL lock usage on bnxt_update_link().") Signed-off-by: Michael Chan <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <[email protected]>
