Subject: Bluetooth: cmtp: Fix deadlock in session deletion
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=7176522cdca1f0b78a1434b41761f0334511822a;p=linux-beck.git

Bluetooth: cmtp: Fix deadlock in session deletion

Commit fada4ac339 introduced the usage of kthread API.
kthread_stop is a blocking function which returns only when
the thread exits. In this case, the thread can't exit because it's
waiting for the write lock, which is being held by cmtp_del_connection()
which is waiting for the thread to exit -- deadlock.

Revert cmtp_reset_ctr to its original behavior: non-blocking signalling
for the session to terminate.
