Subject: [PATCH 0/3] vfio: fixup notifiers and avoid possible deadlock
Date: Tue, 11 Jun 2013 10:01:37 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20130611155848.9995.41709.stgit@bling.home> (raw)

Cleanup a couple of the notifier paths to remove bogus WARN_ON calls.
One is pretty easy to hit and neither really signifies a problems.
Fix remove path to avoid potential deadlock with other device_lock
holders.  Thanks,

Alex
