Subject: [30/78] staging: tidspbridge: protect dmm_map properly

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

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

From: Felipe Contreras <felipe.contreras@...ia.com>

commit ab42abf33a3efdf754710a0a513c00c40854cd61 upstream.

We need to protect not only the dmm_map list, but the individual
map_obj's, otherwise, we might be building the scatter-gather list with
garbage. So, use the existing proc_lock for that.

I observed race conditions which caused kernel panics while running
stress tests, also, Tuomas Kulve found it happening quite often in
Gumstix Over. This patch fixes those.
