    mlx4: Replacing pool_lock with mutex · 730c41d5
    Yevgeny Petrilin 提交于
    Under the spinlock we call request_irq(), which allocates memory with GFP_KERNEL,
    This causes the following trace when DEBUG_SPINLOCK is enabled, it can cause
    the following trace:
    
     BUG: spinlock wrong CPU on CPU#2, ethtool/2595
     lock: ffff8801f9cbc2b0, .magic: dead4ead, .owner: ethtool/2595, .owner_cpu: 0

    Replacing with mutex, which is enough in this case.
