IB/qib: Fix potential deadlock with link down interrupt
There is a possibility of a deadlock due to the way locks are acquired and released in qib_set_uevent_bits(). The function qib_set_uevent_bits() is called in process context and it uses spin_lock() and spin_unlock(). This same lock is acquired/released in interrupt context which can lead to a deadlock when running on the same cpu. The fix is to replace spin_lock() and spin_unlock() with spin_lock_irqsave() and spin_unlock_irqrestore() respectively in qib_set_uevent_bits().
