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. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.
