Dongli Zhang 9210c075ce nvme-pci: avoid race between nvme_reap_pending_cqes() and nvme_poll()
There may be a race between nvme_reap_pending_cqes() and nvme_poll(), e.g.,
when doing live reset while polling the nvme device.

      CPU X                        CPU Y
                               nvme_poll()
nvme_dev_disable()
-> nvme_stop_queues()
-> nvme_suspend_io_queues()
-> nvme_suspend_queue()
                               -> spin_lock(&nvmeq->cq_poll_lock);
-> nvme_reap_pending_cqes()
   -> nvme_process_cq()        -> nvme_process_cq()

In the above scenario, the nvme_process_cq() for the same queue may be
running on both CPU X and CPU Y concurrently.

It is much more easier to reproduce the issue when CONFIG_PREEMPT is
enabled in kernel. When CONFIG_PREEMPT is disabled, it would take longer
time for nvme_stop_queues()-->blk_mq_quiesce_queue() to wait for grace
period.

This patch protects nvme_process_cq() with nvmeq->cq_poll_lock in
nvme_reap_pending_cqes().

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.
