Subject: [linux-dvb] A dvb-core code problem

I found a code problem in dvb-core when I was debugging with my dvb driver.

The code in dvb_dvr_release() file dmxdev.c
/* TODO */
    dvbdev->users--;
    if(*dvbdev->users== -1* && dmxdev->exit==1) {
        fops_put(file->f_op);
        file->f_op = NULL;
        mutex_unlock(&dmxdev->mutex);

"dvbdev->users== -1" should be changed to "dvbdev->users== 1", otherwise 
driver may block forever in dvb_dmxdev_release() where a wakeup 
condition is "dvbdev->users== 1".

Here is the code in dvb_dmxdev_release().

if (dmxdev->dvr_dvbdev->users > 1) {
        wait_event(dmxdev->dvr_dvbdev->wait_queue,
                *dmxdev->dvr_dvbdev->users==1*);
}

I hope it is right to post this message here.
