Subject: vhost-net: avoid flush under lock
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=1680e9063ea28099a1efa8ca11cee069cc7a9bc3;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_samsung_universal7580.git

vhost-net: avoid flush under lock

We flush under vq mutex when changing backends.
This creates a deadlock as workqueue being flushed
needs this lock as well.

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=612421

Drop the vq mutex before flush: we have the device mutex
which is sufficient to prevent another ioctl from touching
the vq.
