Subject: [027/151] ALSA: hrtimer - Fix lock-up

2.6.32-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@...e.de>

commit fcfdebe70759c74e2e701f69aaa7f0e5e32cf5a6 upstream.

The timer stop callback can be called from snd_timer_interrupt(), which
is called from the hrtimer callback.  Since hrtimer_cancel() waits for
the callback completion, this eventually results in a lock-up.

This patch fixes the problem by just toggling a flag at stop callback
and call hrtimer_cancel() later.
