4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

From: Michael Chan <michael.chan@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit d89a2adb8bfe6f8949ff389acdb9fa298b6e8e12 ]

tg3_free_consistent() calls dma_free_coherent() to free tp->hw_stats
under spinlock and can trigger BUG_ON() in vunmap() because vunmap()
may sleep.  Fix it by removing the spinlock and relying on the
TG3_FLAG_INIT_COMPLETE flag to prevent race conditions between
tg3_get_stats64() and tg3_free_consistent().  TG3_FLAG_INIT_COMPLETE
is always cleared under tp->lock before tg3_free_consistent()
and therefore tg3_get_stats64() can safely access tp->hw_stats
under tp->lock if TG3_FLAG_INIT_COMPLETE is set.

Fixes: f5992b72ebe0 ("tg3: Fix race condition in tg3_get_stats64().")
