From 9fdeb33e1913f4d1d2f8cdb9f78565452cbebcfb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jason Wang Date: Mon, 26 Mar 2018 16:10:23 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] vhost_net: add missing lock nesting notation [ Upstream commit aaa3149bbee9ba9b4e6f0bd6e3e7d191edeae942 ] We try to hold TX virtqueue mutex in vhost_net_rx_peek_head_len() after RX virtqueue mutex is held in handle_rx(). This requires an appropriate lock nesting notation to calm down deadlock detector.
