[ Upstream commit03cb4d05b4] Calling ncsi_stop_channel_monitor from channel_monitor is a guaranteed deadlock on SMP because stop calls del_timer_sync on the timer that invoked channel_monitor as its timer function. Recognise the inherent race of marking the monitor disabled before deleting the timer by just returning if enable was cleared. After a timeout (the default case -- reset to START when response received) just mark the monitor.enabled false. If the channel has an entry on the channel_queue list, or if the state is not ACTIVE or INACTIVE, then warn and mark the timer stopped and don't restart, as the locking is broken somehow.

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.
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.
