[ Upstream commit 98f9fcdee3 ]
When using hinic device as a bond slave device, and reading device stats
of master bond device, the kernel may hung.
The kernel panic calltrace as follows:
Kernel panic - not syncing: softlockup: hung tasks
Call trace:
native_queued_spin_lock_slowpath+0x1ec/0x31c
dev_get_stats+0x60/0xcc
dev_seq_printf_stats+0x40/0x120
dev_seq_show+0x1c/0x40
seq_read_iter+0x3c8/0x4dc
seq_read+0xe0/0x130

And the calltrace of task that actually caused kernel hungs as follows:

When getting device stats from bond, kernel will call bond_get_stats().
It first holds the spinlock bond->stats_lock, and then call
hinic_get_stats64() to collect hinic device's stats.
However, hinic_get_stats64() calls `down(&nic_dev->mgmt_lock)` to
protect its critical section, which may schedule current task out.
And if system is under high pressure, the task cannot be woken up
immediately, which eventually triggers kernel hung panic.
Since previous patch has replaced hinic_dev.tx_stats/rx_stats with local
variable in hinic_get_stats64(), there is nothing need to be protected
by lock, so just removing down()/up() is ok.
