4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Michael Chan <michael.chan@xxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 90c694bb71819fb5bd3501ac397307d7e41ddeca ] bnxt_get_port_module_status() calls bnxt_update_link() which expects RTNL to be held. In bnxt_sp_task() that does not hold RTNL, we need to call it with a prior call to bnxt_rtnl_lock_sp() and the call needs to be moved to the end of bnxt_sp_task().
