[PATCH 5.9 019/391] firmware: arm_scmi: Fix locking in notifications
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue Nov 03 2020 - 15:40:01 EST
From: Cristian Marussi <cristian.marussi@xxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit c7821c2d9c0dda0adf2bcf88e79b02a19a430be4 ]
When a protocol registers its events, the notification core takes care
to rescan the hashtable of pending event handlers and activate all the
possibly existent handlers referring to any of the events that are just
registered by the new protocol. When a pending handler becomes active
the core requests and enables the corresponding events in the SCMI
firmware.
If, for whatever reason, the enable fails, such invalid event handler
must be finally removed and freed. Let us ensure to use the
scmi_put_active_handler() helper which handles properly the needed
additional locking.
Failing to properly acquire all the needed mutexes exposes a race that
leads to the following splat being observed:
