[PATCH 4.19 008/118] net: hns3: bugfix for rtnl_locks range in the hclge_reset()

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Nov 26 2018 - 06:03:13 EST


4.19-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

[ Upstream commit a963052e539887df481d4d3a6ad4c92ca6461852 ]

Since hclge_reset_wait() is used to wait for the hardware to complete
the reset, it is not necessary to hold the rtnl_lock during
hclge_reset_wait(). So this patch releases the lock for the duration
of hclge_reset_wait().
