[PATCH 3.10 089/180] dma-debug: avoid spinlock recursion when disabling dma-debug
From: Willy Tarreau
Date: Sun Aug 21 2016 - 11:55:05 EST
From: Ville Syrjälä <ville.syrjala@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit 3017cd63f26fc655d56875aaf497153ba60e9edf upstream.
With netconsole (at least) the pr_err("... disablingn") call can
recurse back into the dma-debug code, where it'll try to grab
free_entries_lock again. Avoid the problem by doing the printk after
dropping the lock.
