4.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Timur Celik <mail@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 71828b2240692cec0e68b8d867bc00e1745e7fae ] This patch moves setting of the current state into the loop. Otherwise the task may end up in a busy wait loop if none of the break conditions are met. Signed-off-by: Timur Celik <mail@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: David S.
