[PATCH] driver core: Add missing dev->bus->need_parent_lock checks

From: Rafael J. Wysocki
Date: Thu Dec 13 2018 - 13:28:12 EST


From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@xxxxxxxxx>

__device_release_driver() has to check dev->bus->need_parent_lock
before dropping the parent lock and acquiring it again as it may
attempt to drop a lock that hasn't been acquired or lock a device
that shouldn't be locked and create a lock imbalance.

Fixes: 8c97a46af04b (driver core: hold dev's parent lock when needed)

This should go into -stable for everything over 4.18 methinks.
