[patch 1/5] scsi/bnx2fc: Plug CPU hotplug race

[Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>]

[-- Attachment #1: scsi-bnx2fc--Plug-CPU-hotplug-race.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 2332 bytes --]

bnx2fc_process_new_cqes() has protection against CPU hotplug, which relies
on the per cpu thread pointer. This protection is racy because it happens
only partially with the per cpu fp_work_lock held.

If the CPU is unplugged after the lock is dropped, the wakeup code can
dereference a NULL pointer or access freed and potentially reused memory.

Restructure the code so the thread check and wakeup happens with the
fp_work_lock held.
