Subject: [PATCH 4.2 25/30] ppp: fix lockdep splat in ppp_dev_uninit()
Date: Thu, 1 Oct 2015 11:21:47 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20151001092039.281806398@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20151001092038.213304276@linuxfoundation.org>
4.2-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Guillaume Nault <g.nault@alphalink.fr>
[ Upstream commit 58a89ecaca53736aa465170530acea4f8be34ab4 ]
ppp_dev_uninit() locks all_ppp_mutex while under rtnl mutex protection.
ppp_create_interface() must then lock these mutexes in that same order
to avoid possible deadlock.
