bonding: set qdisc_tx_busylock to avoid LOCKDEP splat
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
If a qdisc is installed on a bonding device, its possible to get
following lockdep splat under stress :

 =============================================
 [ INFO: possible recursive locking detected ]
 3.6.0+ torvalds#211 Not tainted
 ---------------------------------------------
 ping/4876 is trying to acquire lock:
  (dev->qdisc_tx_busylock ?: &qdisc_tx_busylock){+.-...}, at: [<ffffffff8157a191>] dev_queue_xmit+0xe1/0x830

 but task is already holding lock:
  (dev->qdisc_tx_busylock ?: &qdisc_tx_busylock){+.-...}, at: [<ffffffff8157a191>] dev_queue_xmit+0xe1/0x830

 other info that might help us debug this:
  Possible unsafe locking scenario:

        CPU0
        ----
   lock(dev->qdisc_tx_busylock ?: &qdisc_tx_busylock);
   lock(dev->qdisc_tx_busylock ?: &qdisc_tx_busylock);

  *** DEADLOCK ***

  May be due to missing lock nesting notation

Avoid this problem using a distinct lock_class_key for bonding
devices.
