3.16.62-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Steve Wise <swise@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit bc52e9ca74b9a395897bb640c6671b2cbf716032 upstream. __flush_qp() has a race condition where during the flush operation, the qp lock is released allowing another thread to possibly post a WR, which corrupts the queue state, possibly causing crashes. The lock was released to preserve the cq/qp locking hierarchy of cq first, then qp. However releasing the qp lock is not necessary; both RQ and SQ CQ locks can be acquired first, followed by the qp lock, and then the RQ and SQ flushing can be done w/o unlocking.
