X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=19a177e6fb097c2a0dd94aeeb2805f0c04a4185f;p=linux-beck.git Staging: bcm: Reverse semaphore locking in IOCTL_BCM_BUFFER_DOWNLOAD_STOP. This patch reorders the semaphore locking. It makes better sense to first evaluate fw_download_sema semaphore then NVMRdmWrmLocl semaphore. The fw_download_sema is suppose to be acquired in the START ioctl. If this is not true, then it does not make sense to continue.
