scsi: lpfc: Fix deadlock on host_lock during cable pulls
During cable pull testing a deadlock was seen between lpfc_nlp_counters() vs lpfc_mbox_process_link_up() vs lpfc_work_list_done(). They are all waiting on the shost->host_lock. Issue is all of these cases raise irq when taking out the lock but use spin_unlock_irq() when unlocking. The unlock path is will unconditionally re-enable interrupts in cases where irq state should be preserved. The re-enablement allowed the other paths to execute which then causes the deadlock. Fix by converting the lock/unlock to irqsave/irqrestore. Signed-off-by: Dick Kennedy <dick.kennedy@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: James Smart <jsmart2021@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Martin K.
