X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=775bf2773858c50d2acfcdf71889984be94e7037;p=linux-beck.git [SCSI] hpsa: do not sleep in atomic context in rmmod path. Don't call kthread_stop with a spin lock held and interrupts disabled because kthread_stop will sleep waiting for the thread to stop. Signed-off-by: Stephen M.
