Subject: drivers/message/i2o/i2o_config.c: fix deadlock in compat_ioctl(I2OGETIOPS)
X-Git-Tag: v3.14-rc3~37^2~15
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=a3eb7fbb41eb8d6e22d491741b8c5d5aa6cb069a;p=karo-tx-linux.git

drivers/message/i2o/i2o_config.c: fix deadlock in compat_ioctl(I2OGETIOPS)

i2o_cfg_compat_ioctl(I2OGETIOPS) locks i2o_cfg_mutex and then calls
i2o_cfg_ioctl(I2OGETIOPS) that locks i2o_cfg_mutex as well.  A deadlock
is guaranteed.
