IB/opa_vnic: Use spinlock instead of mutex for stats_lock
Stats can be read from atomic context, hence make stats_lock as a spinlock. Fix the following trace with debug kernel. BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/locking/mutex.c:238 in_atomic(): 1, irqs_disabled(): 0, pid: 6487, name: sadc Call Trace: dump_stack+0x63/0x90 ___might_sleep+0xda/0x130 __might_sleep+0x4a/0x90 mutex_lock+0x20/0x50 opa_vnic_get_stats64+0x56/0x140 [opa_vnic] dev_get_stats+0x74/0x130 dev_seq_printf_stats+0x37/0x120 dev_seq_show+0x14/0x30 seq_read+0x26d/0x3d0 Reviewed-by: Mike Marciniszyn <mike.marciniszyn@intel.com> Reviewed-by: Dennis Dalessandro <dennis.dalessandro@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Niranjana Vishwanathapura <niranjana.vishwanathapura@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Doug Ledford <dledford@redhat.com>
