Subject: [PATCH 4/7] [media] cx88: protect cx8802_devlist with a mutex
Date: Sun, 1 May 2011 04:30:14 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110501093014.GD18380@elie> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20110501091710.GA18263@elie>

Add and use a mutex to protect the cx88-mpeg device list.  Previously
the BKL prevented races.

Based on work by Ben Hutchings <ben@decadent.org.uk>.
