From e6028db0146cf5a68dbd1508225ea49840997880 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alexey Khoroshilov <khoroshilov@ispras.ru> Date: Sat, 22 Dec 2012 01:44:16 +0400 Subject: [PATCH] mei: fix mismatch in mutex unlock-lock in mei_amthif_read() Users of mei_amthif_read() expect it leaves dev->device_lock held, while there is a path where mei_amthif_read() unlocks device_lock and returns -ERESTARTSYS. The patch move code locking device_lock back before the return. Found by Linux Driver Verification project (linuxtesting.org).
