Message-Id: <1424455977-21903-2-git-send-email-fabf@skynet.be> Date: Fri, 20 Feb 2015 19:12:52 +0100 From: Fabian Frederick <fabf@...net.be> To: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@...hat.com>, Peter Zijlstra <peterz@...radead.org>, Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@...uxfoundation.org>, Fabian Frederick <fabf@...net.be>, Karsten Keil <isdn@...ux-pingi.de>, netdev@...r.kernel.org Subject: [PATCH 2/7 linux-next] mISDN: replace current->state by set_current_state() Use helper function to access current->state. Direct assignments are prone to races and therefore buggy. Thanks to Peter Zijlstra for the exact definition of the problem.
