In ehea_probe_adapter() the initial memory allocation and initialisation does
not need to be done with the ehea_fw_handles.lock semaphore held. Doing so
extends the amount of time the lock is held unnecessarily.

Hi David,
thanks for your patch. Coincidentally we have been working on a patch that
does some locking rework and also touches this particular lock.
So your patch finnally won't be required anymore. Thanks anyway for trying
to improve the eHEA driver!
I'm going to post our patch later today.
