[PATCH 0/1] ACPI: platform-profile: Fix possible deadlock in platform_profile_remove()

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

 



Hi Rafael,

Sorry for throwing another patch into the mix for the acpi-platform
branch. I always build my local kernels with lockdep enabled and
while testing an unrelated acpi_thinkpad patch I did "rmmod acpi_thinkpad"
and lockdep pointed out this potential deadlock.

The fix is simple enough, although it does rely on the assumption
that drivers will only call platform_profile_remove() after they
have first successfully called platform_profile_register().

See the actual patch for more details.

Regards,

Hans
