This needs to be fixed on 3.0. This should fix the timer issue. Please test. Gustavo Author: Gustavo F. Padovan <padovan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed Jun 29 17:45:56 2011 -0300 Bluetooth: Delete timer before call kthread_stop() If we keep the timer running we can have a race condition between the timer and hidp_del_connection. By deleting the time before call kthread_stop() we won't have any race condition. Signed-off-by: Gustavo F.
