&o2net_debug_lock is acquired by timer o2net_idle_timer() along the following call chain. Thus the acquisition of the lock under process context should disable bottom half, otherwise deadlock could happen if the timer happens to preempt the execution while the lock is held in process context on the same CPU. <timer interrupt> -> o2net_idle_timer() -> queue_delayed_work() -> sc_put() -> sc_kref_release() -> o2net_debug_del_sc() -> spin_lock(&o2net_debug_lock); Several lock acquisition of &o2net_debug_lock under process context do not disable irq or bottom half. The patch fixes these potential deadlocks scenerio by using spin_lock_bh() on &o2net_debug_lock. This flaw was found by an experimental static analysis tool I am developing for irq-related deadlock. x86_64 allmodconfig using gcc shows no new warning.
