3.16.76-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Taehee Yoo <ap420073@xxxxxxxxx> commit fdd258d49e88a9e0b49ef04a506a796f1c768a8e upstream. cfhsi_exit_module() calls unregister_netdev() under rtnl_lock(). but unregister_netdev() internally calls rtnl_lock(). So deadlock would occur. Fixes: c41254006377 ("caif-hsi: Add rtnl support") Signed-off-by: Taehee Yoo <ap420073@xxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: David S.
