From: Ivan Vecera <ivecera@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit aa626da947e9cd30c4cf727493903e1adbb2c0a0 ] iavf_reset_task() takes crit_lock at the beginning and holds it during whole call. The function subsequently calls iavf_init_interrupt_scheme() that grabs RTNL. Problem occurs when userspace initiates during the reset task any ndo callback that runs under RTNL like iavf_open() because some of that functions tries to take crit_lock. This leads to classic A-B B-A deadlock scenario. To resolve this situation the device should be detached in iavf_reset_task() prior taking crit_lock to avoid subsequent ndos running under RTNL and reattach the device at the end.
