    other info that might help us debug this:
    Possible unsafe locking scenario:

          CPU0
          ----
     lock(&(&iboe->lock)->rlock);
     <Interrupt>
       lock(&(&iboe->lock)->rlock);

    *** DEADLOCK ***

The above problem was caused by the spin lock being taken both in the process
context and in a soft-irq context (in a netdev notifier handler).

The required fix is to use spin_lock/unlock_bh() instead of spin_lock/unlock
on the iboe lock.
