[patch 1/2] OSS: soundcard: locking bug in sound_ioctl()

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

 



We shouldn't return directly here because we're still holding the
&soundcard_mutex.

This bug goes all the way back to the start of git.  It's strange that
no one has complained about it as a runtime bug.
