4.20-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Dave Watson <davejwatson@xxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 1023121375c6b0b3dc00334983c762ba2b76cb19 ] If there are outstanding async tx requests (when crypto returns EINPROGRESS), there is a potential deadlock: the tx work acquires the lock, while we cancel_delayed_work_sync() while holding the lock. Drop the lock while waiting for the work to complete. Fixes: a42055e8d2c30 ("Add support for async encryption of records...") Signed-off-by: Dave Watson <davejwatson@xxxxxx> Signed-off-by: David S.
