[PATCH 5/6] mISDN: Do not disable IRQ in ph_data_ind()

From: Karsten Keil
Date: Thu Jun 11 2009 - 13:29:49 EST


This fix triggering the WARN_ON_ONCE(in_irq() || irqs_disabled()); in
local_bh_enable().

Here is no need to grab this lock, this was wrong at all and may
cause a deadlock and access to freed memory, since on a TEI remove
the current listelement can be deleted under us. So this is clearly
a case for list_for_each_entry_safe.
