3.8.13.15 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Veaceslav Falico <vfalico at redhat.com>
[ Upstream commit ec6f809ff6f19fafba3212f6aff0dda71dfac8e8 ]
Currently we're using plain spin_lock() in prb_shutdown_retire_blk_timer(),
however the timer might fire right in the middle and thus try to re-aquire
the same spinlock, leaving us in a endless loop.
To fix that, use the spin_lock_bh() to block it.
Fixes: f6fb8f100b80 ("af-packet: TPACKET_V3 flexible buffer implementation.")
