This patch changes to use rtnl_lock only during a reset to avoid deadlock that could occur when a thread operating close is holding rtnl_lock and waiting for reset_lock acquired by another thread, which is waiting for rtnl_lock in order to set the number of tx/rx queues during a reset. Also, we now setting the number of tx/rx queues during a soft reset for failover or LPM events. Signed-off-by: Juliet Kim <julietk@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

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.
