Subject[PATCH 4.14 147/217] ravb: fix invalid context bug while calling auto-negotiation by ethtool
Date
4.14-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Vladimir Zapolskiy <vladimir_zapolskiy@mentor.com>

[ Upstream commit 0973a4dd79fe56a3beecfcff675ba4c01df0b0c1 ]

Since commit 35b5f6b1a82b ("PHYLIB: Locking fixes for PHY I/O
potentially sleeping") phy_start_aneg() function utilizes a mutex
to serialize changes to phy state, however the helper function is
called in atomic context.

The bug can be reproduced by running "ethtool -r" command, the bug
is reported if CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP build option is enabled.

Fixes: c156633f1353 ("Renesas Ethernet AVB driver proper")
