3.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Stephen Boyd <sboyd@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 89f7e9de59bf3e3cda2e00de12c66db22675a7cf upstream. Commit 6314b6796e3c (clk: Don't hold prepare_lock across debugfs creation, 2014-09-04) forgot to update one place where we hold the prepare_lock while creating debugfs directories. This means we still have the chance of a deadlock that the commit was trying to fix. Actually fix it by moving the debugfs creation outside the prepare_lock.
