stable inclusion from linux-4.19.198 commit 050b80f9d3fddd3688be3c16c4f94397ae795826
--------------------------------
commit c749d8c018daf5fba6dfac7b6c5c78b27efd7d65 upstream.
Currently css_wait_for_slow_path() gets called inside the chp->lock. The path-verification-loop of slowpath inside this lock could lead to deadlock as reported by the lockdep validator.
The ccw_device_get_chp_desc() during the instance of a device-set-online would try to acquire the same 'chp->lock' to read the chp->desc. The instance of this function can get called from multiple scenario, like probing or setting-device online manually. This could, in some corner-cases lead to the deadlock.
lockdep validator reported this as,
CPU0 CPU1 ---- ---- lock(&chp->lock); lock(kn->active#43); lock(&chp->lock); lock((wq_completion)cio);
The chp->lock was introduced to serialize the access of struct channel_path. This lock is not needed for the css_wait_for_slow_path() function, so invoke the slow-path function outside this lock.
