Subject: [PATCH] net: irda: init spinlock after memcpy
Date: Mon, 27 Jul 2009 14:12:24 +0200 (CEST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <alpine.LFD.2.00.0907271407590.2936@localhost.localdomain> (raw)

From: Deepak Saxena <dsaxena@mvista.com>

irttp_dup() copies a tsap_cb struct, but does not initialize the
spinlock in the new structure, which confuses lockdep.
