[PATCH 2/2] staging: tidspbridge: extend dmm_map semaphore

From: Felipe Contreras
Date: Mon Dec 20 2010 - 09:26:51 EST


We need to protect not only the list, but the individual map_obj's.
Otherwise, we might be building the scatter-gather list while the
map_obj is being destroyed.

I observed race conditions which caused kernel panics while running
stress tests. This patch fixes those.
