Heiner Kallweit 61e6b82e7b igb: fix deadlock caused by taking RTNL in RPM resume path
[ Upstream commit ac8c58f5b5 ]

Recent net core changes caused an issue with few Intel drivers
(reportedly igb), where taking RTNL in RPM resume path results in a
deadlock. See [0] for a bug report. I don't think the core changes
are wrong, but taking RTNL in RPM resume path isn't needed.
The Intel drivers are the only ones doing this. See [1] for a
discussion on the issue. Following patch changes the RPM resume path
to not take RTNL.

README

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.
