[ Upstream commitb41b554c1e] Due to insufficient locking, qeth_core_set_online() and qeth_dev_layer2_store() can run in parallel, both attempting to load & setup the discipline (and stepping on each other toes along the way). A similar race can also occur between qeth_core_remove_device() and qeth_dev_layer2_store(). Access to .discipline is meant to be protected by the discipline_mutex, so add/expand the locking in qeth_core_remove_device() and qeth_core_set_online(). Adjust the locking in qeth_l*_remove_device() accordingly, as it's now handled by the callers in a consistent manner. Based on an initial patch by Ursula Braun.

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.
