Subject: [I810_AUDIO] 1/x: Fix wait queue race in drain_dac
Date: Sat, 22 Nov 2003 18:09:31 +1100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20031122070931.GA27231@gondor.apana.org.au> (raw)

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 427 bytes --]

Hi:

This is the first of a number of patches to fix DMA bugs in the
OSS i810_audio driver.

This particular one fixes a textbook race condition in drain_dac
that causes it to timeout when it shouldn't.
