[PATCH] USB: serial: fix hang when opening port

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

 



Johan's 'fix use-after-free in TIOCMIWAIT' patchset[1] introduces
one bug which can cause kernel hang when opening port.

This patch initialized the 'port->delta_msr_wait' waitqueue head
to fix the bug which is introduced in 3.9-rc4.
