wait_for_cmd_complete() uses in_interrupt() to detect whether it is safe to
sleep or not.
The usage of in_interrupt() in drivers is phased out and Linus clearly
requested that code which changes behaviour depending on context should
either be seperated or the context be conveyed in an argument passed by the
caller, which usually knows the context.
in_interrupt() also is only partially correct because it fails to chose the
correct code path when just preemption or interrupts are disabled.
Add an argument 'may_block' to both functions and adjust the callers to
pass the context information.
The following call chains which end up invoking wait_for_cmd_complete()
were analyzed to be safe to sleep:
s2io_card_up()
s2io_set_multicast()
init_nic()
init_tti()
s2io_close()
do_s2io_delete_unicast_mc()
do_s2io_add_mac()
s2io_set_mac_addr()
do_s2io_prog_unicast()
do_s2io_add_mac()
s2io_reset()
do_s2io_restore_unicast_mc()
do_s2io_add_mc()
do_s2io_add_mac()
s2io_open()
do_s2io_prog_unicast()
do_s2io_add_mac()
The following call chains which end up invoking wait_for_cmd_complete()
were analyzed to be safe to sleep:
__dev_set_rx_mode()
s2io_set_multicast()
s2io_txpic_intr_handle()
s2io_link()
init_tti()
Add a may_sleep argument to wait_for_cmd_complete(), s2io_set_multicast()
and init_tti() and hand the context information in from the call sites.

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 Restructured Text 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.
