Subject: ACPICA: Debugger: Lock namespace for duration of a namespace dump
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=672af843abfc9a41c7ec792722e04b6c68a3cfea;p=linux-beck.git

ACPICA: Debugger: Lock namespace for duration of a namespace dump

Prevents issues if the namespace is changing underneath the
debugger.  Especially temporary nodes, since the debugger displays
these also.
