Subject: IB/hfi1: Fix hard lockup due to not using save/restore spin lock
From: Mike Marciniszyn <mike.marciniszyn@xxxxxxxxx>
commit 7049de65c9e520886f06d6f9deceaaed5d93fb7c upstream.
Commit b9b06cb6feda
("IB/hfi1: Fix missing lock/unlock in verbs drain callback")
added a spin lock.
Unfortunately, the new lock code can be called from a base
level interrupt state, and an interrupt that can get stacked
will attempt to get the same lock.
Fix by using the flag save/restore spin lock variation.
