From 2bdba316c989da028a59becf7516c6350ce3c173 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mathieu Desnoyers Date: Fri, 14 Nov 2008 17:47:35 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] markers: fix unregister Impact: fix marker registers/unregister race get_marker() can return a NULL entry because the mutex is released in the middle of those functions. Make sure we check to see if it has been concurrently removed.
