Mutex vport_cfg_mutex has been used to protect uc_mac_list, mc_mac_list and vlan_list from being modified by unloading or reset task at the same time. But now unloading will set up HCLGE_STATE_REMOVING flag and call cancel_work_sync to break down this race condition, so this mutex is unnecessary.

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.
