IB/ipath: Fix potential deadlock with multicast spinlocks
Lockdep found the following potential deadlock between mcast_lock and n_mcast_grps_lock: mcast_lock is taken from both interrupt context and process context, so spin_lock_irqsave() must be used to take it. n_mcast_grps_lock is only taken from process context, so at first it seems safe to take it with plain spin_lock(); however, it also nests inside mcast_lock, and hence we could deadlock: cpu A cpu B ipath_mcast_add(): spin_lock_irq(&mcast_lock); ipath_mcast_detach(): spin_lock(&n_mcast_grps_lock); <enter interrupt> ipath_mcast_find(): spin_lock_irqsave(&mcast_lock); spin_lock(&n_mcast_grps_lock); Fix this by using spin_lock_irq() to take n_mcast_grps_lock.
