Wysocki" Date: Thu, 13 Dec 2018 19:27:47 +0100 Subject: driver core: Add missing dev->bus->need_parent_lock checks __device_release_driver() has to check dev->bus->need_parent_lock before dropping the parent lock and acquiring it again as it may attempt to drop a lock that hasn't been acquired or lock a device that shouldn't be locked and create a lock imbalance.
