To avoid false lock dependency warning set the ct_entries_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 5.10.0-rc2+ #8 Tainted: G O ------------------------------------------------------ revalidator23/24009 is trying to acquire lock: ffff888128d83828 (&node->lock){++++}-{3:3}, at: mlx5_del_flow_rules+0x83/0x7a0 [mlx5_core] but task is already holding lock: ffff8881081ef518 (&ht->mutex){+.+.}-{3:3}, at: rhashtable_free_and_destroy+0x37/0x720 which lock already depends on the new lock.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
