[patch 05/60] serialize stp/etr work

From: Martin Schwidefsky
Date: Thu Nov 27 2008 - 05:34:34 EST


From: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@xxxxxxxxxx>

The work function dispatched with schedule_work() can be run twice
on different cpus because run_workqueue clears the WORK_STRUCT_PENDING
bit and then executes the function. Another cpu can call schedule_work()
again and run the work function a second time before the first call
is completed. This patch serialized the etr and stp work function with
a mutex.
