From 01294d82622d6d9d64bde8e4530c7e2c6dbb6ee6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Milton Miller Date: Wed, 18 May 2011 10:27:39 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] of: fix race when matching drivers If two drivers are probing devices at the same time, both will write their match table result to the dev->of_match cache at the same time. Only write the result if the device matches. In a thread titled "SBus devices sometimes detected, sometimes not", Meelis reported his SBus hme was not detected about 50% of the time. From the debug suggested by Grant it was obvious another driver matched some devices between the call to match the hme and the hme discovery failling.
