From ff960a731788a7408b6f66ec4fd772ff18833211 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peter Zijlstra Date: Wed, 29 Oct 2014 17:04:56 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] netdev, sched/wait: Fix sleeping inside wait event rtnl_lock_unregistering*() take rtnl_lock() -- a mutex -- inside a wait loop. The wait loop relies on current->state to function, but so does mutex_lock(), nesting them makes for the inner to destroy the outer state. Fix this using the new wait_woken() bits.
