[PATCH net 2/3] dpll: zl3073x: use __dpll_device_change_ntf() and remove change_work
From: Ivan Vecera
Date: Tue May 26 2026 - 03:48:08 EST
The change_work was introduced to send device change notifications
from DPLL device callbacks without deadlocking on dpll_lock, since
the callbacks are already invoked under that lock. Now that
__dpll_device_change_ntf() is exported for callers that already
hold dpll_lock, use it directly and remove the change_work
infrastructure entirely.
This eliminates a race condition where change_work could be
re-scheduled after cancel_work_sync() during device teardown,
potentially causing the handler to dereference a freed or NULL
dpll_dev pointer.
Fixes: 9363b4837659 ("dpll: zl3073x: Allow to configure phase offset averaging factor")
