Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 5.10 2/6] crypto: null - Use spin lock instead of mutex
Date: Thu, 3 Apr 2025 20:07:45 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250404000751.2689430-2-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250404000751.2689430-1-sashal@kernel.org>
From: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
[ Upstream commit dcc47a028c24e793ce6d6efebfef1a1e92f80297 ]
As the null algorithm may be freed in softirq context through
af_alg, use spin locks instead of mutexes to protect the default
null algorithm.
