[PATCH] pci: iov: use device lock to protect IOV sysfs accesses

From: Jakub Kicinski
Date: Mon May 22 2017 - 18:50:39 EST


PCI core sets the driver pointer before calling ->probe() and only
clears it after ->remove(). This means driver's ->sriov_configure()
callback will happily race with probe() and remove(), most likely
leading to BUGs, since drivers don't expect this.

We could reorder pointer assignments, or try detecting races in all
drivers, but it seems simpler and cleaner to just hold the device lock
instead of special SR-IOV lock, since that lock is already supposed
to synchronize the driver callbacks.

Remove the iov lock completely, since we remove the last user.
