From d1b3f51ee1eab3a6db1b09a60e61280c48eb0b01 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Satish Kharat Date: Thu, 5 Oct 2017 16:41:21 -0700 Subject: scsi: libfc: fix a deadlock in fc_rport_work In places like fc_rport_recv_plogi_req and fcoe_ctlr_vn_add we always take the lport disc_mutex lock before the rports mutex (rp_mutex) lock. Gaurding list_del_rcu(&rdata->peers) with disc.disc_mutex in fc_rport_work is correct but the rp_mutex lock can and should to be dropped before taking that lock else results in a deadlock.
