When a user creates a dualpi2 qdisc it automatically sets a timer. This
timer will run constantly and update the qdisc's probability field.
The issue is that the timer acquires the qdisc root lock and runs in
hardirq. The qdisc root lock is also acquired in dev.c whenever a packet
arrives for this qdisc. Since the dualpi2 timer callback runs in hardirq,
it may interrupt the packet processing running in softirq. If that happens
and it runs on the same CPU, it will acquire the same lock and cause a
deadlock. The following splat shows up when running a kernel compiled with
lock debugging:

I am able to reproduce it consistently when running the following:
tc qdisc add dev lo handle 1: root dualpi2
ping -f 127.0.0.1
To fix it, make the timer run in softirq.

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.
