Subject: [patch 04/23] PCI: Fix fakephp deadlock
Date: Fri, 22 Feb 2008 13:40:12 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080222214012.GE8686@suse.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20080222213927.GA8686@suse.de>

[-- Attachment #1: pci-fix-fakephp-deadlock.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 4093 bytes --]

2.6.22-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us
know.

------------------

From: Ian Abbott <abbotti@mev.co.uk>

This patch works around a problem in the fakephp driver when a process
writing "0" to a "power" sysfs file to fake removal of a PCI device ends
up deadlocking itself in the sysfs code.

The patch is functionally identical to the one in Linus' tree post 2.6.24:
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=5c796ae7a7ebe56967ed9b9963d7c16d733635ff

I have tested it on a 2.6.22 kernel.
