You guys are really something.

First of all, as is evident here, I am the original reporter, not Laura Abbott <labbott@redhat.com>.
-All- your comments including the final patch on this issue, are just plain wrong.[1]
This patch only hides the actual problem with this particular device - the dual tuner combination driven by dvb_usb_af9015 & mxl5007t, broken by design since day one.

Read the entire https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1252167
and stop this nonsense.

Sorry, I've been delayed with conferences and have been avoiding e-mails and bugzilla.
I missed sending out the Tested-by tag.
You are welcome to drop the reported-by if you don't think it is appropriate.

Hi Poma,

        I understand your frustration!

I got involved via the other thread which didn't mention your bug report
anywhere.  I'm sure Laura was trying to be helpful by creating a minimal
report, but the resulting patch erred in not crediting you.

> First of all, as is evident here, I am the original reporter, not Laura Abbott <labbott@redhat.com>.

Thanks for clarifying that.  I have fixed the commit message to credit
you.  See below.

Oh, there's definitely a real issue in the driver; this one is cosmetic.

Yeah, I've had days like this, too :(

Anyway, thanks for finding this bug: if the driver init hadn't been
screwed it wouldn't have taken that path and found this for us.

Good luck with the other issue!
Rusty.

Subject: [PATCH] module: Fix locking in symbol_put_addr()

Poma (on the way to another bug) reported an assertion triggering:

  [<ffffffff81150529>] module_assert_mutex_or_preempt+0x49/0x90
  [<ffffffff81150822>] __module_address+0x32/0x150
  [<ffffffff81150956>] __module_text_address+0x16/0x70
  [<ffffffff81150f19>] symbol_put_addr+0x29/0x40
  [<ffffffffa04b77ad>] dvb_frontend_detach+0x7d/0x90 [dvb_core]

Laura Abbott <labbott@redhat.com> produced a patch which lead us to
inspect symbol_put_addr(). This function has a comment claiming it
doesn't need to disable preemption around the module lookup
because it holds a reference to the module it wants to find, which
therefore cannot go away.

This is wrong (and a false optimization too, preempt_disable() is really
rather cheap, and I doubt any of this is on uber critical paths,
otherwise it would've retained a pointer to the actual module anyway and
avoided the second lookup).

While its true that the module cannot go away while we hold a reference
on it, the data structure we do the lookup in very much _CAN_ change
while we do the lookup. Therefore fix the comment and add the
required preempt_disable().
