[ Upstream commit c55479d0cb6a28029844d0e90730704a0fb5efd3 ] E-Switch mode change routine will take the write lock to prevent any consumer to access the E-Switch resources while E-Switch is going through a mode change. In the next patch E-Switch consumers (e.g vport representors) will take read_lock prior to accessing E-Switch resources to prevent E-Switch mode changing in the middle of the operation.

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.
