Hi Shachar,
Our original patch is based on "3. A solution using RCU, included in
Mellanox OFED", our kernel merge it with rcu, finally found the hang
issue in free_cq(), then make the patch with rwlock instead of rcu to
fix the hang problem. I pull the latest upstream code and make a patch
based on it, send it to linux-rdma to review.

Yes ,our original patch is based on the source code which merging "A
solution using RCU, included in Mellanox OFED", in order to send to
linux-rdma, we made a patch based on the latest upstream code and sent
it to review.
