This mutex was introduced to deal with the deadlock formed by calling unregister_netdev from within the sysfs callback of a netdev. Now that we have priv_destructor and needs_free_netdev we can switch to the more targeted solution of running the unregister from a work queue. This avoids the deadlock and gets rid of the mutex. The next patch in the series needs this mutex eliminated to create atomicity of unregisteration. Signed-off-by: Jason Gunthorpe <jgg@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by: Leon Romanovsky <leonro@mellanox.com>
