Subject[PATCH 3.19.y-ckt 093/102] net: phy: add locking to phy_read_mmd_indirect()/phy_write_mmd_indirect()
Date
3.19.8-ckt7 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

commit 05a7f582be961824d62a7f4a817f3783148b5f8a upstream.

The phy layer is missing locking for the above two functions - it
has been observed that two threads (userspace and the phy worker
thread) can race, entering the bus ->write or ->read functions
simultaneously.

This causes the FEC driver to initialise a completion while another
thread is waiting on it or while the interrupt is calling complete()
on it, which causes spinlock unlock-without-lock, spinlock lockups,
and completion timeouts.

Fixes: a59a4d192 ("phy: add the EEE support and the way to access to the MMD registers.")
Fixes: 0c1d77dfb ("net: libphy: Add phy specific function to access mmd phy registers")
