Subject: [PATCH] staging/rtl8188eu/core/rtw_cmd: Fixes semaphore locking
Date: Tue, 09 Aug 2016 01:34:57 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1470720897.23538.2.camel@oracle.com> (raw)

The code did not lock the &pcmdpriv->terminate_cmdthread_sema before using it.
The code had an up() where a down() should've been. This patch fixes that.
