Subject: hwrng: core - Fix current_rng init/cleanup race yet again
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=15b66cd54291186011f733cc750263f320b8a0a4;p=linux-beck.git

hwrng: core - Fix current_rng init/cleanup race yet again

The kref solution is still buggy because we were only focusing
on the register/unregister race.  The same race affects the
setting of current_rng through sysfs.

This patch fixes it by using kref_get_unless_zero.
