In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

igb: revert rtnl_lock() that causes deadlock

The commit 6faee3d4ee8b ("igb: Add lock to avoid data race") adds rtnl_lock to eliminate a false data race shown below

(FREE from device detaching) | (USE from netdev core) igb_remove | igb_ndo_get_vf_config igb_disable_sriov | vf >= adapter->vfs_allocated_count? kfree(adapter->vf_data) | adapter->vfs_allocated_count = 0 | | memcpy(... adapter->vf_data[vf]

The above race will never happen and the extra rtnl_lock causes deadlock below

Since the igb_disable_sriov() will call pci_disable_sriov() before releasing any resources, the netdev core will synchronize the cleanup to avoid any races. This patch removes the useless rtnl_(un)lock to guarantee correctness.
