[PATCH 4/5] firmware: fix detecting error on register_reboot_notifier()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



register_reboot_notifier() can fail, detect this and address this
failure. This has been broken since v3.11, however the chances of
this failing here is really low.

Fixes: fe304143b0c3d ("firmware: Avoid deadlock of usermodehelper lock at shutdown")
