Subject: [PATCH RESEND] tipc: avoid possible deadlock while enable and disable bearer

From: Ding Tianhong <[email-masked]>
Date: Fri, 9 Aug 2013 14:31:21 +0800

We met lockdep warning when enable and disable the bearer for commands such as:

tipc-config -netid=1234 -addr=1.1.3 -be=eth:eth0
tipc-config -netid=1234 -addr=1.1.3 -bd=eth:eth0

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

The problem is that the tipc_link_delete() will cancel the timer disc_timeout() when
the b_ptr->lock is hold, but the disc_timeout() still call b_ptr->lock to finish the
work, so the dead lock occurs.

We should unlock the b_ptr->lock when del the disc_timeout().

Remove link_timeout() still met the same problem, the patch:

http://article.gmane.org/gmane.network.tipc.general/4380

fix the problem, so no need to send patch for fix link_timeout() deadlock warming.
