pci_msix_write_tph_tag() takes the per device MSI descriptor mutex and then
invokes msi_domain_get_virq(), which takes the same mutex again. That
obviously results in a system hang which is exposed by a softlockup or
lockdep warning.
Move the lock guard after the invocation of msi_domain_get_virq() to fix
this.
[ tglx: Massage changelog by adding a proper explanation and removing the
not really useful stacktrace ]

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.
