[ Upstream commit 1afac08b39d85437187bb2a92d89a741b1078f55 ]
Commit 13bac861952a ("IB/hfi1: Fix abba locking issue with sc_disable()")
incorrectly tries to move a list from one list head to another. The
result is a kernel crash.
The crash is triggered when a link goes down and there are waiters for a
send to complete. The following signature is seen:
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000030
[...]
Call Trace:
sc_disable+0x1ba/0x240 [hfi1]

kthread+0xd7/0x100
? kthread_complete_and_exit+0x20/0x20
ret_from_fork+0x1f/0x30
The fix is to use the correct call to move the list.

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.
