PATCH 8/12 usb: serial: sierra: disable irq's for portdata lock

Quoted 5 lines · Sebastian Andrzej Siewior

From: John Ogness <[email protected]>

The portdata spinlock can be taken in interrupt context (via sierra_outdat_callback()).
Disable interrupts when taking the portdata spinlock.

Good catch!

As this fixes a potential deadlock, I've reworded the commit message and added a Fixes and stable-CC tag.

But as no one appears to have hit this since it was introduced over four years ago, I think this can go into -next along with the rest of the series.

All patches now applied. Nice work!

Thanks,
Johan
