mainlining shenanigans
1800eee166
The in_interrupt() usage in this driver tries to figure out which context
may sleep and which context may not sleep. in_interrupt() is not really
suitable as it misses both preemption disabled and interrupt disabled
invocations from task context.
Conditionals like that in driver code are frowned upon in general because
invocations of functions from invalid contexts might not be detected
as the conditional papers over it.
ionic_lif_addr() and _ionoc_lif_rx_mode() can be called from:
1) ->ndo_set_rx_mode() which is under netif_addr_lock_bh()) so it must not
sleep.
2) Init and setup functions which are in fully preemptible task context.
ionic_link_status_check_request() has two call paths:
1) NAPI which obviously cannot sleep
2) Setup which is again fully preemptible task context
Add arguments which convey the execution context to the affected functions
and let the callers provide the context instead of letting the functions
deduce it.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
