3.11.10.12 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Martin Peres <martin.peres@xxxxxxxx>
commit 61679fe153b2b9ea5b5e2ab93305419e85e99a9d upstream.
This should fix a deadlock that has been reported to us where fan_update()
would hold the fan lock and try to grab the alarm_program_lock to reschedule
an update. On an other CPU, the alarm_program_lock would have been taken
before calling fan_update(), leading to a deadlock.
We should Cc: <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> # 3.9+
