Subject: [PATCH 1/1] EM28xx - fix deadlock when unplugging and replugging a DVB adapter
Date: Sat, 20 Aug 2011 23:38:00 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4E503748.1090309@yahoo.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <4E4FCC8D.3070305@redhat.com>

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 251 bytes --]

Here's the new patch for the deadlock problem, which releases the device mutex 
before calling em28xx_init_extension() and then reacquires it afterwards. The 
locking in dvb_init() is now left alone.
