Ranjan Kumar 2acc635a0e scsi: mpi3mr: Use IRQ save variants of spinlock to protect chain frame allocation
Driver uses spin lock without irqsave when it needs to acquire a chain
frame. This is done to protect chain frame allocation from multiple
submission threads. If there is any I/O queued from an interrupt context,
and if that requires a chain frame, and if the chain lock is held by the CPU
which got interrupted, then there will be a possible deadlock.
