John Ernberg d68a867d74 net: usbnet: Avoid potential RCU stall on LINK_CHANGE event 
commit 0d9cfc9b8c upstream.

The Gemalto Cinterion PLS83-W modem (cdc_ether) is emitting confusing link
up and down events when the WWAN interface is activated on the modem-side.

Interrupt URBs will in consecutive polls grab:
* Link Connected
* Link Disconnected
* Link Connected

Where the last Connected is then a stable link state.

When the system is under load this may cause the unlink_urbs() work in
__handle_link_change() to not complete before the next usbnet_link_change()
call turns the carrier on again, allowing rx_submit() to queue new SKBs.

In that event the URB queue is filled faster than it can drain, ending up
in a RCU stall:

    rcu: INFO: rcu_sched detected expedited stalls on CPUs/tasks: { 0-.... } 33108 jiffies s: 201 root: 0x1/.
    rcu: blocking rcu_node structures (internal RCU debug):
    Sending NMI from CPU 1 to CPUs 0:

Get around the problem by delaying the carrier on to the scheduled work.

This needs a new flag to keep track of the necessary action.

The carrier ok check cannot be removed as it remains required for the
LINK_RESET event flow.

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 reStructuredText 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.
