[PATCH 4.9 033/105] mailbox: always wait in mbox_send_message for blocking Tx mode
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Fri Aug 04 2017 - 20:13:35 EST
4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Sudeep Holla <sudeep.holla@xxxxxxx>
commit c61b781ee084e69855477d23dd33e7e6caad652c upstream.
There exists a race when msg_submit return immediately as there was an
active request being processed which may have completed just before it's
checked again in mbox_send_message. This will result in return to the
caller without waiting in mbox_send_message even when it's blocking Tx.
This patch fixes the issue by waiting for the completion always if Tx
is in blocking mode.
