X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=13fdc9a74df0fec70f421c6891e184ed8c3b9088;p=GitHub%2Fmoto-9609%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git [AF_IUCV]: Avoid deadlock between iucv_path_connect and tasklet. An iucv deadlock may occur, where one CPU is spinning on the iucv_table_lock for iucv_tasklet_fn(), while another CPU is holding the iucv_table_lock for an iucv_path_connect() and is waiting for the first CPU in an smp_call_function. Solution: replace spin_lock in iucv_tasklet_fn by spin_trylock and reschedule tasklet in case of non-granted lock. Signed-off-by: Ursula Braun Acked-by: Frank Pavlic Signed-off-by: David S.
