When net_shaper_ops are enabled for MANA, netdev_ops_lock
becomes active.
MANA VF setup/teardown by netvsc follows this call chain:
netvsc_vf_setup()
dev_change_flags()
...
__dev_open() OR __dev_close()
dev_change_flags() holds the netdev mutex via netdev_lock_ops.
Meanwhile, mana_create_txq() and mana_create_rxq() in mana_open()
path call NAPI APIs (netif_napi_add_tx(), netif_napi_add_weight(),
napi_enable()), which also try to acquire the same lock, risking
deadlock.
Similarly in the teardown path (mana_close()), netif_napi_disable()
and netif_napi_del(), contend for the same lock.
Switch to the _locked variants of these APIs to avoid deadlocks
when the netdev_ops_lock is held.
Fixes: d4c22ec680 ("net: hold netdev instance lock during ndo_open/ndo_stop")

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.
