Chuck Lever 426b8fb3d6 svcrdma: Hold private mutex while invoking rdma_accept()
[ Upstream commit 0ac24c320c ]

RDMA core mutex locking was restructured by commit d114c6feed
("RDMA/cma: Add missing locking to rdma_accept()") [Aug 2020]. When
lock debugging is enabled, the RPC/RDMA server trips over the new
lockdep assertion in rdma_accept() because it doesn't call
rdma_accept() from its CM event handler.

As a temporary fix, have svc_rdma_accept() take the handler_mutex
explicitly. In the meantime, let's consider how to restructure the
RPC/RDMA transport to invoke rdma_accept() from the proper context.

Calls to svc_rdma_accept() are serialized with calls to
svc_rdma_free() by the generic RPC server layer.

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.
