3.12-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

===============

commit 61679fe153b2b9ea5b5e2ab93305419e85e99a9d upstream.

This should fix a deadlock that has been reported to us where fan_update()
would hold the fan lock and try to grab the alarm_program_lock to reschedule
an update. On an other CPU, the alarm_program_lock would have been taken
before calling fan_update(), leading to a deadlock.

We should Cc: <[email protected]> # 3.9+
