So like this on top. Tejun, you didn't add your S.O.B and patch
description, if this helps as we expect they will be needed.

---->

pci: use work_on_cpu_nested for nested SRIOV

Snce 3.9-rc1 mlx driver started triggering a lockdep warning.

The issue is that a driver, in it's probe function, calls
pci_sriov_enable so a PF device probe causes VF probe (AKA nested
probe).  Each probe in pci_device_probe which is (normally) run through
work_on_cpu (this is to get the right numa node for memory allocated by
the driver).  In turn work_on_cpu does this internally:

        schedule_work_on(cpu, &wfc.work);
        flush_work(&wfc.work);

So if you are running probe on CPU1, and cause another
probe on the same CPU, this will try to flush
workqueue from inside same workqueue which triggers
a lockdep warning.

Nested probing might be tricky to get right generally.

But for pci_sriov_enable, the situation is actually very simple:
VFs almost never use the same driver as the PF so the warning
is bogus there.

This is hardly elegant as it might shut up some real warnings if a buggy
driver actually probes itself in a nested way, but looks to me like an
appropriate quick fix for 3.9.

Then it can deadlock, e.g. if driver takes a global mutex.  But it's an
internal driver issue the, you can trigger a deadlock through hardware
too, e.g. if VF initialization blocks until PF is fully initialized.
I think it's not the case for Mellanox, is it?
This is what I refer to: would be nice to fix nested probing in general
but it seems disabling the warning is the best we can do for 3.9 since
it causes false positives.

What about the case where the VF driver IS the same as the PF driver?

Correct, the Mellanox driver does not deadlock.

Tejun, what do you say my patch is used for 3.9,
and we can revisit for 3.10.
The release is almost here.
If yes please send your Ack.

So now I used  Tejun's patch and Michael patch on top of the net.git as 
of commit 2e0cbf2cc2c9371f0aa198857d799175ffe231a6

Michael, can you post a new version with Tejun's ack?  IIRC, this was
in drivers/pci, but I haven't been following this and am not sure
exactly what you want applied.  Thanks.

Michael,

I assume you mean pull to 3.9 both Tejun's and your patch, correct? I
wasn't sure what does this really buys us... we got read from the
false-positive lockdep warning which takes place during nested probe
and got another lockdep warning during the probe of Interrupt
controller

Or.
