Subject: fb: Yet another band-aid for fixing lockdep mess
From: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@xxxxxxx>
commit e93a9a868792ad71cdd09d75e5a02d8067473c4e upstream.
I've still got lockdep warnings even after Alan's patch, and it seems that
yet more band aids are required to paper over similar paths for
unbind_con_driver() and unregister_con_driver(). After this hack, lockdep
warnings are finally gone.
