Subject: Input: evdev - properly access RCU-protected 'grab' data
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=dba4258068f822b7dafc78c28fe9c99c551eca7e;p=linux-beck.git

Input: evdev - properly access RCU-protected 'grab' data

We should use rcu_dereference_protected() when checking if given client
is the one that grabbed the device. This fixes warnings produced by
sparse.
