Subject: [PATCH 2/4] tty/serial: at91: fix race condition in atmel_serial_remove
Date: Tue, 7 Jan 2014 11:45:07 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <671825c81b51d19b435fca8c9cc54b6fbbf51f31.1389090437.git.nicolas.ferre@atmel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1389090437.git.nicolas.ferre@atmel.com>

From: Marek Roszko <mark.roszko@gmail.com>

The _remove callback could be called when a tasklet is scheduled. tasklet_kill
was called inside the function in order to free up any scheduled tasklets.
However it was called after uart_remove_one_port which destroys tty references
needed in the port for atmel_tasklet_func.
Simply putting the tasklet_kill at the start of the function will prevent this
conflict.
