Subject: clocksource: Protect the watchdog rating changes with clocksource_mutex
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=d0981a1b21a03866c8da7f44e35e389c2e0d6061;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_samsung_universal7580.git

clocksource: Protect the watchdog rating changes with clocksource_mutex

Martin pointed out that commit 6ea41d2529 (clocksource: Call
clocksource_change_rating() outside of watchdog_lock) has a
theoretical reference count problem. The calls to
clocksource_change_rating() are now done outside of the clocksource
mutex and outside of the watchdog lock. A concurrent
clocksource_unregister() could remove the clock.

Split out the code which changes the rating from
clocksource_change_rating() into __clocksource_change_rating().

Protect the clocksource_watchdog_work() code sequence with the
clocksource_mutex() and call __clocksource_change_rating().
