[RFC v1 1/3] vfio-ccw: Do not call flush_workqueue while holding the spinlock

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

 



Currently we call flush_workqueue while holding the subchannel
spinlock. But flush_workqueue function can go to sleep, so
do not call the function while holding the spinlock.

Fixes the following bug:
