[PATCH v10 3/6] leds: rgb: leds-ktd202x: Initialize mutex earlier

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

 



The mutex must be initialized before the LED class device is registered
otherwise there is a race where it may get used before it is initialized:

 DEBUG_LOCKS_WARN_ON(lock->magic != lock)
 WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 2045 at kernel/locking/mutex.c:587 __mutex_lock
 ...
 RIP: 0010:__mutex_lock+0x7db/0xc10
 ...
 set_brightness_delayed_set_brightness.part.0+0x17/0x60
 set_brightness_delayed+0xf1/0x100
 process_one_work+0x222/0x5a0

Move the mutex_init() call earlier to avoid this race condition and
switch to devm_mutex_init() to avoid the need to add error-exit
cleanup to probe() if probe() fails later on.
