Subject: [PATCH] mmc: sdhci: Setting the host->mrq to NULL before executing tuning
Date: Tue, 05 Nov 2013 14:52:45 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1383634365.26153.100.camel@cliu38-desktop-build> (raw)


In function sdhci_request(), it is possible to do the tuning execution
like below:

sdhci_request() {
	spin_lock_irqsave(&host->lock, flags);
	host->mrq = mrq;
	...
	spin_unlock_irqrestore(&host->lock, flags);

<=== Here it is possible one pending finish_tasklet get running
     and it will operate the original mrq, and notified the mrq
     is done, and causes memory corruption.

	sdhci_execute_tuning(mmc, tuning_opcode);
	spin_lock_irqsave(&host->lock, flags);
	host->mrq = mrq;
...
}

In the above race place, the original mrq should not be finished wrongly,
so here before unlock the spinlock, we need to set the host->mrq to NULL
to avoid this case.
