Maor Gottlieb c586bc31d5 net/mlx5: Fix potential sleeping in atomic context
commit ee27e330a9 upstream.

Fixes the below flow of sleeping in atomic context by releasing
the RCU lock before calling to free_match_list.

build_match_list() <- disables preempt
-> free_match_list()
   -> tree_put_node()
      -> down_write_ref_node() <- take write lock

Fixes: 693c6883bb ("net/mlx5: Add hash table for flow groups in flow table")

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.
