From: Selvin Xavier <selvin.xavier@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit d455f29f6d76a5f94881ca1289aaa1e90617ff5d ]

Fix possible recursive lock warning. Its a false warning as the locks are
part of two differnt HW Queue data structure - cmdq and creq. Debug kernel
is throwing the following warning and stack trace.

[  783.914967] ============================================
[  783.914970] WARNING: possible recursive locking detected
[  783.914973] 4.19.0-rc2+ #33 Not tainted
[  783.914976] --------------------------------------------
[  783.914979] swapper/2/0 is trying to acquire lock:
[  783.914982] 000000002aa3949d (&(&hwq->lock)->rlock){..-.}, at: bnxt_qplib_service_creq+0x232/0x350 [bnxt_re]
[  783.914999]
but task is already holding lock:
[  783.915002] 00000000be73920d (&(&hwq->lock)->rlock){..-.}, at: bnxt_qplib_service_creq+0x2a/0x350 [bnxt_re]
[  783.915013]
other info that might help us debug this:
[  783.915016]  Possible unsafe locking scenario:

[  783.915019]        CPU0
[  783.915021]        ----

[  783.915037]
 *** DEADLOCK ***

[  783.915038]  May be due to missing lock nesting notation

Use nested notation for the spin_lock to avoid this warning.
