[PATCH 4.19 26/48] sfc: fix kernel panic when creating VF

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

From: Íñigo Huguet <ihuguet@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit ada74c5539eba06cf8b47d068f92e0b3963a9a6e ]

When creating VFs a kernel panic can happen when calling to
efx_ef10_try_update_nic_stats_vf.

When releasing a DMA coherent buffer, sometimes, I don't know in what
specific circumstances, it has to unmap memory with vunmap. It is
disallowed to do that in IRQ context or with BH disabled. Otherwise, we
hit this line in vunmap, causing the crash:
  BUG_ON(in_interrupt());

This patch reenables BH to release the buffer.

Log messages when the bug is hit:
