Subject: [PATCH 5/8] n_gsm: added interlocking for gsm_data_lock for certain code paths
Date: Mon, 13 Aug 2012 13:44:40 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120813124433.6125.4800.stgit@localhost.localdomain> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20120813124254.6125.70371.stgit@localhost.localdomain>

From: Russ Gorby <russ.gorby@intel.com>

There were some locking holes in the management of the MUX's
message queue for 2 code paths:
1) gsmld_write_wakeup
2) receipt of CMD_FCON flow-control message
In both cases gsm_data_kick is called w/o locking so it can collide
with other other instances of gsm_data_kick (pulling messages tx_tail)
or potentially other instances of __gsm_data_queu (adding messages to tx_head)

Changed to take the tx_lock in these 2 cases
