[PATCH] p54spi: fix locking warning in p54spi_op_tx

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

 



This patch fixes the following waring:
> ------------[ cut here ]------------
>WARNING: at kernel/softirq.c:138 local_bh_enable+0x54/0xbc()
>Modules linked in: p54spi
>[<c0034ff8>] (dump_stack+0x0/0x14)

>[<c01a4d34>] (p54_sta_unlock+0x0/0x78)

p54spi_op_tx needs to be called from different locking contexts.
Therefore we have to protect the linked list with irqsave spinlocks.
