3.2.85-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Fabio Estevam <fabio.estevam@xxxxxxx> commit f91346e8b5f46aaf12f1df26e87140584ffd1b3f upstream. An interrupt may occur right after devm_request_irq() is called and prior to the spinlock initialization, leading to a kernel oops, as the interrupt handler uses the spinlock. In order to prevent this problem, move the spinlock initialization prior to requesting the interrupts.
