Karicheri, Muralidharan 8ceaf361ff net: netcp: fix deadlock reported by lockup detector
A deadlock trace is seen in netcp driver with lockup detector enabled.
The trace log is provided below for reference. This patch fixes the
bug by removing the usage of netcp_modules_lock within ndo_ops functions.
ndo_{open/close/ioctl)() is already called with rtnl_lock held. So there
is no need to hold another mutex for serialization across processes on
multiple cores.  So remove use of netcp_modules_lock mutex from these
ndo ops functions.

ndo_set_rx_mode() shouldn't be using a mutex as it is called from atomic
context. In the case of ndo_set_rx_mode(), there can be call to this API
without rtnl_lock held from an atomic context. As the underlying modules
are expected to add address to a hardware table, it is to be protected
across concurrent updates and hence a spin lock is used to synchronize
the access. Same with ndo_vlan_rx_add_vid() & ndo_vlan_rx_kill_vid().

Probably the netcp_modules_lock is used to protect the module not being
removed as part of rmmod. Currently this is not fully implemented and
assumes the interface is brought down before doing rmmod of modules.
The support for rmmmod while interface is up is expected in a future
patch set when additional modules such as pa, qos are added. For now
all of the tests such as if up/down, reboot, iperf works fine with this
patch applied.

Deadlock trace seen with lockup detector enabled is shown below for
reference.
