The patch titled
Subject: drivers/hwspinlock: fix race between radix tree insertion and lookup
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
hwspinlock-fix-race-between-radix-tree-insertion-and-lookup.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
------------------------------------------------------
From: Matthew Wilcox <willy@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: drivers/hwspinlock: fix race between radix tree insertion and lookup
of_hwspin_lock_get_id() is protected by the RCU lock, which means that
insertions can occur simultaneously with the lookup. If the radix tree
transitions from a height of 0, we can see a slot with the indirect_ptr
bit set, which will cause us to at least read random memory, and could
cause other havoc.
Fix this by using the newly introduced radix_tree_iter_retry().
