Subject: ipmi: handle run_to_completion properly in deliver_recv_msg()
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.35-rc1~121
X-Git-Url: https://git.openpandora.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=pandora-kernel.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=a747c5abc329611220f16df0bb4cf0ca4a7fdf0c

ipmi: handle run_to_completion properly in deliver_recv_msg()

If run_to_completion flag is set, it means that we are running in a
single-threaded mode, and thus no locks are held.

This fixes a deadlock when IPMI notifier is being called during panic.
