Merge branch 'bnxt_en-rtnl-fixes'
Michael Chan says:
====================
bnxt_en: Fix RTNL lock usage in bnxt_sp_task().
There are 2 function calls from bnxt_sp_task() that have buggy RTNL
usage. These 2 functions take RTNL lock under some conditions, but
some callers (such as open, ethtool) have already taken RTNL. These
3 patches fix the issue by making it clear that callers must take
RTNL. If the caller is bnxt_sp_task() which does not automatically
take RTNL, we add a common scheme for bnxt_sp_task() to call these
functions properly under RTNL.
