[ Upstream commit 679ab61bf5f5f519377d812afb4fb93634782c74 ]
There is a deadlock in irdma_cleanup_cm_core(), which is shown below:
(Thread 1) | (Thread 2)
| irdma_schedule_cm_timer()
irdma_cleanup_cm_core() | add_timer()
spin_lock_irqsave() //(1) | (wait a time)
... | irdma_cm_timer_tick()
del_timer_sync() | spin_lock_irqsave() //(2)
(wait timer to stop) | ...
We hold cm_core->ht_lock in position (1) of thread 1 and use
del_timer_sync() to wait timer to stop, but timer handler also need
cm_core->ht_lock in position (2) of thread 2. As a result,
irdma_cleanup_cm_core() will block forever.
This patch removes the check of timer_pending() in
irdma_cleanup_cm_core(), because the del_timer_sync() function will just
return directly if there isn't a pending timer. As a result, the lock is
redundant, because there is no resource it could protect.
