3.13.11.4 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Oliver Hartkopp <socketcan@xxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit ddcde142bed44490e338ed1124cb149976d355bb ] With commit cc9fa74e2a ("slip/slcan: added locking in wakeup function") a formerly missing locking was added to slip.c and slcan.c by Andre Naujoks. Alexander Stein contributed the fix 367525c8c2 ("can: slcan: Fix spinlock variant") as the kernel lock debugging advised to use spin_lock_bh() instead of just using spin_lock(). This fix has to be applied to the same code section in slip.c for the same reason too. Signed-off-by: Oliver Hartkopp <socketcan@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: David S.
