From: Marek Marczykowski-Górecki Date: Fri, 26 Jun 2015 01:28:24 +0000 (+0200) Subject: xen/gntdevt: Fix race condition in gntdev_release() X-Git-Tag: v3.2.72~104 X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=a97233643dcf324d983d92118099213fd08b7fba;p=thirdparty%2Fkernel%2Fstable.git xen/gntdevt: Fix race condition in gntdev_release() commit 30b03d05e07467b8c6ec683ea96b5bffcbcd3931 upstream. While gntdev_release() is called the MMU notifier is still registered and can traverse priv->maps list even if no pages are mapped (which is the case -- gntdev_release() is called after all). But gntdev_release() will clear that list, so make sure that only one of those things happens at the same time.
