From 606035e76e79b14bf7a7c219140c045a952cc76e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Al Viro Date: Sat, 14 Sep 2013 17:32:12 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] autofs4: close the races around autofs4_notify_daemon() Don't drop ->wq_mutex before calling autofs4_notify_daemon() only to regain it there. Besides being pointless, that opens a race window where autofs4_wait_release() could've come and freed wq->name.name. And do the debugging printk in the "reused an existing wq" case before dropping ->wq_mutex - the same reason... Signed-off-by: Al Viro Acked-by: Ian Kent --- Reading git-format-patch failed
