Subject: net: Fix ipoib rtnl_lock sysfs deadlock.
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.31-rc1~330^2~363
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=26574401fef6766f6c3ca25b5c13febe662d2a32;p=karo-tx-linux.git

net: Fix ipoib rtnl_lock sysfs deadlock.

Network device sysfs files that grab the rtnl_lock unconditionally
will deadlock if accessed when the network device is being
unregistered.  So use trylock and syscall_restart to avoid this
deadlock.
