to the 5.15-stable tree which can be found at:
     http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queuegit;a=summary

The filename of the patch is:
      platform-x86-xiaomi-wmi-fix-race-condition-when-repo.patch
and it can be found in the queue-5.15 subdirectory.

If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree,
please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it.

Hi,

the underlying race condition can only be triggered since
commit e2ffcda16290 ("ACPI: OSL: Allow Notify () handlers to run on all CPUs"), which
afaik was introduced with kernel 6.8.

Because of this, i do not think that we have to backport this commit to kernels before 6.8.

Thanks,
Armin Wolf

     platform/x86: xiaomi-wmi: Fix race condition when reporting key events

     [ Upstream commit 290680c2da8061e410bcaec4b21584ed951479af ]

     Multiple WMI events can be received concurrently, so multiple instances
     of xiaomi_wmi_notify() can be active at the same time. Since the input
     device is shared between those handlers, the key input sequence can be
     disturbed.

     Fix this by protecting the key input sequence with a mutex.

     Compile-tested only.
