    net/mlx5e: Avoid false lock depenency warning on tc_ht · 9ba33339
    Roi Dayan authored
    To avoid false lock dependency warning set the tc_ht lock
    class different than the lock class of the ht being used when deleting
    last flow from a group and then deleting a group, we get into del_sw_flow_group()
    which call rhashtable_destroy on fg->ftes_hash which will take ht->mutex but
    it's different than the ht->mutex here.
    
    ======================================================
    WARNING: possible circular locking dependency detected
    5.11.0-rc4_net_next_mlx5_949fdcc #1 Not tainted
    ------------------------------------------------------
    modprobe/12950 is trying to acquire lock:
    ffff88816510f910 (&node->lock){++++}-{3:3}, at: mlx5_del_flow_rules+0x2a/0x210 [mlx5_core]
    
    but task is already holding lock:
    ffff88815834e3e8 (&ht->mutex){+.+.}-{3:3}, at: rhashtable_free_and_destroy+0x37/0x340
    
    which lock already depends on the new lock.
