[PATCH 5.4 218/260] net/mlx5: Fix potential sleeping in atomic context
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Sep 20 2021 - 14:24:02 EST
From: Maor Gottlieb <maorg@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit ee27e330a953595903979ffdb84926843595a9fe upstream.
Fixes the below flow of sleeping in atomic context by releasing
the RCU lock before calling to free_match_list.
build_match_list() <- disables preempt
-> free_match_list()
-> tree_put_node()
-> down_write_ref_node() <- take write lock
Fixes: 693c6883bbc4 ("net/mlx5: Add hash table for flow groups in flow table")
