Robert Hancock 1ee7774527 net: sfp: add mutex to prevent concurrent state checks
[ Upstream commit 2158e856f5 ]

sfp_check_state can potentially be called by both a threaded IRQ handler
and delayed work. If it is concurrently called, it could result in
incorrect state management. Add a st_mutex to protect the state - this
lock gets taken outside of code that checks and handle state changes, and
the existing sm_mutex nests inside of it.

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.
