Subject[PATCH AUTOSEL 5.7 093/388] net: mdiobus: Disable preemption upon u64_stats update
Date
From: "Ahmed S. Darwish" <a.darwish@linutronix.de>

[ Upstream commit c7e261d81783387a0502878cd229327e7c54322e ]

The u64_stats mechanism uses sequence counters to protect against 64-bit
values tearing on 32-bit architectures. Updating u64_stats is thus a
sequence counter write side critical section where preemption must be
disabled.

For mdiobus_stats_acct(), disable preemption upon the u64_stats update.
It is called from process context through mdiobus_read() and
mdiobus_write().
