If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ [ Upstream commit f3c63795e90f0c6238306883b6c72f14d5355721 ] Commit 073db4a51ee4 ("mtd: fix: avoid race condition when accessing mtd->usecount") fixed a race condition but due to poor ordering of the mutex acquisition, introduced a potential deadlock. The deadlock can occur, for example, when rmmod'ing the m25p80 module, which will delete one or more MTDs, along with any corresponding mtdblock devices. This could potentially race with an acquisition of the block device as follows. -> blktrans_open() -> mutex_lock(&dev->lock); -> mutex_lock(&mtd_table_mutex); -> del_mtd_device() -> mutex_lock(&mtd_table_mutex); -> blktrans_notify_remove() -> del_mtd_blktrans_dev() -> mutex_lock(&dev->lock); This is a classic (potential) ABBA deadlock, which can be fixed by making the A->B ordering consistent everywhere. There was no real purpose to the ordering in the original patch, AFAIR, so this shouldn't be a problem. This ordering was actually already present in del_mtd_blktrans_dev(), for one, where the function tried to ensure that its caller already held mtd_table_mutex before it acquired &dev->lock: if (mutex_trylock(&mtd_table_mutex)) { mutex_unlock(&mtd_table_mutex); BUG(); } So, reverse the ordering of acquisition of &dev->lock and &mtd_table_mutex so we always acquire mtd_table_mutex first.
