From 7ac1cc9aef00942cbae01ff39bfc0a93199741e2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jakub Kicinski Date: Mon, 21 May 2018 22:12:50 -0700 Subject: devlink: don't take instance lock around eswitch mode set Changing switch mode may want to register and unregister devlink ports. Therefore similarly to DEVLINK_CMD_PORT_SPLIT/UNSPLIT it should not take the instance lock. Drivers don't depend on existing locking since it's a very recent addition.
