The tcf_block_unbind() expects that the caller will take block->cb_lock
before calling it, however the code took RTNL lock instead. This causes
to the following kernel panic.

Hi Leon,

This fix probably breaks all other drivers besides mlx5 that require
rtnl lock on TC filter update path (called from tp->ops->reoffload()).
I suggest both rtnl lock and cb_lock are required here.

Regards,
Vlad

You are not taking rtnl lock in other bind/unbind paths, why this is different?
Are you taking rtnl lock in layers above?
