Subject: ipc: call idr_find() without locking in ipc_lock()
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=983bfb7db303cfde56ae5bbf4e0f2f46e38c9576;p=GitHub%2Fmoto-9609%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

ipc: call idr_find() without locking in ipc_lock()

Call idr_find() locklessly from ipc_lock(), since the idr tree is now RCU
protected.
