Julia Cartwright 7038cdb7d6 net: macb: reduce scope of rx_fs_lock-protected regions 
Commit ae8223de3d ("net: macb: Added support for RX filtering")
introduces a lock, rx_fs_lock which is intended to protect the list of
rx_flow items and synchronize access to the hardware rx filtering
registers.

However, the region protected by this lock is overscoped, unnecessarily
including things like slab allocation.  Reduce this lock scope to only
include operations which must be performed atomically: list traversal,
addition, and removal, and hitting the macb filtering registers.

This fixes the use of kmalloc w/ GFP_KERNEL in atomic context.

README 

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
