Subject: [patch 5/6] zcrypt: Fix possible dead lock in AP bus module.
Date: Mon, 26 Mar 2007 22:52:30 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070326205253.047933294@de.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20070326205225.438154546@de.ibm.com

[-- Attachment #1: 005-zcrypt-deadlock.diff --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 2123 bytes --]

From: Ralph Wuerthner <rwuerthn@de.ibm.com>

If a AP device is unconfigured __ap_poll_all() will call
device_unregister() in software interrupt context which can cause
dead locks. To fix this the device will be only marked as unconfigured
and the device_unregister() call will be done later by either
ap_scan_bus() or ap_queue_message() in process context.
