[PATCH 10/24] Staging: ipack/bridges/tpci200: RCU protect slot_irq pointers.

From: Samuel Iglesias Gonsalvez
Date: Wed Sep 12 2012 - 09:03:35 EST


From: Jens Taprogge <jens.taprogge@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

In tpci200_request_irq as well as tpci200_free_irq we set and unset the
pointer to struct slot_irq. This pointer is accessed in
tpci200_interrupt. To ensure that the pointer is not freed after it has
been fetched in tpci200_interrupt() it is now protected through RCU.
