Selvin Xavier 6a89b3a67a RDMA/bnxt_re: Fix recursive lock warning in debug kernel
[ Upstream commit d455f29f6d ]

Fix possible recursive lock warning. Its a false warning as the locks are
part of two differnt HW Queue data structure - cmdq and creq. Debug kernel
is throwing the following warning and stack trace.

[  783.914967] ============================================

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
