From: Davidlohr Bueso <dave@xxxxxxxxxxxx> This patch has been added to the 4.1 stable tree. If you have any objections, please let us know. =============== [ Upstream commit c5c8975b2eb4eb7604e8ce4f762987f56d2a96a2 ] Upon every shm_lock call, we BUG_ON if an error was returned, indicating racing either in idr or in shm_destroy. Move this logic into the locking.
