RDMA/ib_srp: Fix a deadlock
[ Upstream commit 081bdc9fe05bb23248f5effb6f811da3da4b8252 ] Remove the flush_workqueue(system_long_wq) call since flushing system_long_wq is deadlock-prone and since that call is redundant with a preceding cancel_work_sync() Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220215210511.28303-3-bvanassche@acm.org Fixes: ef6c49d87c34 ("IB/srp: Eliminate state SRP_TARGET_DEAD") Reported-by: syzbot+831661966588c802aae9@syzkaller.appspotmail.com Signed-off-by: Bart Van Assche <bvanassche@acm.org> Reviewed-by: Leon Romanovsky <leonro@nvidia.com> Signed-off-by: Jason Gunthorpe <jgg@nvidia.com> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>
