[PATCH 4.4 60/90] cxl: Fix error path on bad ioctl

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

 



4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Frederic Barrat <fbarrat@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit cec422c11caeeccae709e9942058b6b644ce434c upstream.

Fix error path if we can't copy user structure on CXL_IOCTL_START_WORK
ioctl. We shouldn't unlock the context status mutex as it was not
locked (yet).

Fixes: 0712dc7e73e5 ("cxl: Fix issues when unmapping contexts")
