[ 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] ============================================
