Shifeng Li 2b38dbd7fa RDMA/device: Fix a race between mad_client and cm_client init
[ Upstream commit 7a8bccd8b29c321ac181369b42b04fecf05f98e2 ]

The mad_client will be initialized in enable_device_and_get(), while the
devices_rwsem will be downgraded to a read semaphore. There is a window
that leads to the failed initialization for cm_client, since it can not
get matched mad port from ib_mad_port_list, and the matched mad port will
be added to the list after that.

                  |return NULL
                  |up_read(&devices_rwsem)
                  |

ib_mad_port_open  |
list_add_tail(&port_priv->port_list, &ib_mad_port_list)
up_read(&devices_rwsem)
                  |

Fix it by using down_write(&devices_rwsem) in ib_register_client().

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.
