Kalesh AP 3c163f35bd bnxt_en: Optimize recovery path ULP locking in the driver
In the error recovery path (AER, firmware recovery, etc), the
driver notifies the RoCE driver via ULP_STOP before the reset
and via ULP_START after the reset, all under RTNL_LOCK.  The
RoCE driver can take a long time if there are a lot of QPs to
destroy, so it is not ideal to hold the global RTNL lock.

Rely on the new en_dev_lock mutex instead for ULP_STOP and
ULP_START.  For the most part, we move the ULP_STOP call before
we take the RTNL lock and move the ULP_START after RTNL unlock.
Note that SRIOV re-enablement must be done after ULP_START
or RoCE on the VFs will not resume properly after reset.

The one scenario in bnxt_hwrm_if_change() where the RTNL lock
is already taken in the .ndo_open() context requires the ULP
restart to be deferred to the bnxt_sp_task() workqueue.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
