Subject[PATCH V2] ax25: Fix potential deadlock on &ax25_list_lock
Date
Timer interrupt ax25_ds_timeout() could introduce double locks on
&ax25_list_lock.

ax25_ioctl()
--> ax25_ctl_ioctl()
--> ax25_dama_off()
--> ax25_dev_dama_off()
--> ax25_check_dama_slave()
--> spin_lock(&ax25_list_lock)
<timer interrupt>
--> ax25_ds_timeout()
--> spin_lock(&ax25_list_lock)

This flaw was found by an experimental static analysis tool I am
developing for irq-related deadlock.

To prevent the potential deadlock, the patch use spin_lock_bh()
on &ax25_list_lock inside ax25_check_dama_slave().

Fixes: c19c4b9c9acb ("[AX.25]: Optimize AX.25 socket list lock")
