[PATCH net] net: pse-pd: Fix deadlock in current limit functions

From: Kory Maincent
Date: Wed Feb 12 2025 - 10:18:14 EST


Fix a deadlock in pse_pi_get_current_limit and pse_pi_set_current_limit
caused by consecutive mutex_lock calls. One in the function itself and
another in pse_pi_get_voltage.

Resolve the issue by using the unlocked version of pse_pi_get_voltage
instead.

Fixes: e0a5e2bba38a ("net: pse-pd: Use power limit at driver side instead of current limit")

It seems the current limit configuration was not tested in the last
patch series. Sorry for that.
