X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=882fe011a92fa4fc31ca6cc95b279f7e4e52935c;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2FG12%2Fandroid_kernel_amlogic_linux-4.9.git

[PATCH] ipmi: fix a deadlock

Correct an issue with the IPMI message layer taking a lock and calling
lower layer driver.  If an error occrues at the lower layer the lock can be
taken again causing a deadlock.  The lock is released before calling the
lower layer.
