[PATCH 4.19 096/239] pcmcia: fix setting of kthread task states

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Jan 24 2022 - 14:57:16 EST


From: Dominik Brodowski <linux@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit fbb3485f1f931102d8ba606f1c28123f5b48afa3 ]

We need to set TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE before calling kthread_should_stop().
Otherwise, kthread_stop() might see that the pccardd thread is still
in TASK_RUNNING state and fail to wake it up.

Additionally, we only need to set the state back to TASK_RUNNING if
kthread_should_stop() breaks the loop.
