mlx4_en: don't use napi_synchronize inside mlx4_en_netpoll
commit c98235cb8584a72e95786e17d695a8e5fafcd766 upstream. The mlx4 driver is triggering schedules while atomic inside mlx4_en_netpoll: spin_lock_irqsave(&cq->lock, flags); napi_synchronize(&cq->napi); ^^^^^ msleep here mlx4_en_process_rx_cq(dev, cq, 0); spin_unlock_irqrestore(&cq->lock, flags); This was part of a patch by Alexander Guller from Mellanox in 2011, but it still isn't upstream.
