      ====================
      s390/qeth: updates 2020-08-27
      
      please apply the following patch series for qeth to netdev's net-next tree.
      
      Patch 8 makes some improvements to how we handle HW address events,
      avoiding some uncertainty around processing stale events after we
      switched off the feature.
      Except for that it's all straight-forward cleanups.

      s390/qeth: strictly order bridge address events · 9d6a569a
      Julian Wiedmann authored
      The current code for bridge address events has two shortcomings in its
      control sequence:
      
      1. after disabling address events via PNSO, we don't flush the remaining
         events from the event_wq. So if the feature is re-enabled fast
         enough, stale events could leak over.
      2. PNSO and the events' arrival via the READ ccw device are unordered.
         So even if we flushed the workqueue, it's difficult to say whether
         the READ device might produce more events onto the workqueue
         afterwards.
      
      Fix this by
      1. explicitly fencing off the events when we no longer care, in the
         READ device's event handler. This ensures that once we flush the
         workqueue, it doesn't get additional address events.
      2. Flush the workqueue after disabling the events & fencing them off.
         As the code that triggers the flush will typically hold the sbp_lock,
         we need to rework the worker code to avoid a deadlock here in case
         of a 'notifications-stopped' event. In case of lock contention,
         requeue such an event with a delay. We'll eventually aquire the lock,
         or spot that the feature has been disabled and the event can thus be
         discarded.
      
      This leaves the theoretical race that a stale event could arrive
      _after_ we re-enabled ourselves to receive events again. Such an event
      would be impossible to distinguish from a 'good' event, nothing we can
      do about it.
