This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled powerpc/eeh_cache: Fix a possible debugfs deadlock to the 5.4-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: powerpc-eeh_cache-fix-a-possible-debugfs-deadlock.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.4 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit cea09430544155f302f5044971eceac4f2a629a1 Author: Qian Cai <cai@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed Oct 28 11:27:17 2020 -0400 powerpc/eeh_cache: Fix a possible debugfs deadlock [ Upstream commit fd552e0542b4532483289cce48fdbd27b692984b ] Lockdep complains that a possible deadlock below in eeh_addr_cache_show() because it is acquiring a lock with IRQ enabled, but eeh_addr_cache_insert_dev() needs to acquire the same lock with IRQ disabled. Let's just make eeh_addr_cache_show() acquire the lock with IRQ disabled as well.
