[PATCH] drm/exynos: fix a possible null-pointer dereference due to data race in exynos_drm_crtc_atomic_disable()

[Tuo Li]

The variable crtc->state->event is often protected by the lock 
crtc->dev->event_lock when is accessed. However, it is accessed as a 
condition of an if statement in exynos_drm_crtc_atomic_disable() without
holding the lock:

  if (crtc->state->event && !crtc->state->active)

However, if crtc->state->event is changed to NULL by another thread right
after the conditions of the if statement is checked to be true, a
null-pointer dereference can occur in drm_crtc_send_vblank_event():

  e->pipe = pipe;

To fix this possible null-pointer dereference caused by data race, the 
spin lock coverage is extended to protect the if statement as well as the 
function call to drm_crtc_send_vblank_event().

I cannot find this report. This is an open source work and public
collaboration. The "Reported-by" usually means that the issue was
reported to us, in some way, usually in public. Can we see the report?
Otherwise adding non-public, non-verifiable reports is useless and
clutters our report-credit-system.

Best regards,
Krzysztof
