3.18-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.
