3.13.11.7 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Axel Lin <axel.lin@xxxxxxxxxx> commit cf44819c98db11163f58f08b822d626c7a8f5188 upstream. Ensure mutex lock protects the read-modify-write period to prevent possible race condition bug. In additional, update data->valid should also be protected by the mutex lock.
