Problem: qeth_close_dev_handler is a worker that tries to acquire card->discipline_mutex via drv->set_offline() in ccwgroup_set_offline(). Since commitb41b554c1e("s390/qeth: fix locking for discipline setup / removal") qeth_remove_discipline() is called under card->discipline_mutex and cancels the work and waits for it to finish. STOPLAN reception with reason code IPA_RC_VEPA_TO_VEB_TRANSITION is the only situation that schedules close_dev_work. In that situation scheduling qeth recovery will also result in an offline interface, when resetting the isolation mode fails, if the external switch is still set to VEB. And since commit0b9902c1fc("s390/qeth: fix deadlock during recovery") qeth recovery does not aquire card->discipline_mutex anymore. So we accept the longer pathlength of qeth_schedule_recovery in this error situation and re-use the existing function. As a side-benefit this changes the hwtrap to behave like during recovery instead of like during a user-triggered set_offline.

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.
