This change was suggested by Thomas Gleixner. The semantic patch that makes this change is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // @r@ identifier i,t,ex; @@ struct t i = { .remove = ex, }; @@ identifier r.ex; @@ ex(...) { <... - del_timer + del_timer_sync (...) ...> } // Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall Signed-off-by: Wim Van Sebroeck --- diff --git a/drivers/watchdog/via_wdt.c b/drivers/watchdog/via_wdt.c index d2cd9f0bcb9a..56369c4f1961 100644 --- a/drivers/watchdog/via_wdt.c +++ b/drivers/watchdog/via_wdt.c @@ -232,7 +232,7 @@ err_out_disable_device: static void wdt_remove(struct pci_dev *pdev) { watchdog_unregister_device(&wdt_dev); - del_timer(&timer); + del_timer_sync(&timer); iounmap(wdt_mem); release_mem_region(mmio, VIA_WDT_MMIO_LEN); release_resource(&wdt_res);
