Subject: [PATCH v2 0/2] gpiolib: don't allow user-space to crash the kernel with hot-unplugs
From: Bartosz Golaszewski <bartosz.golaszewski@...aro.org>
This is a second iteration of the changes that aim at fixing the situation
in which the user-space can provoke a NULL-pointer derefence in the kernel
when a GPIO device that's in use by user-space is removed.
v1 -> v2:
- add missing gdev->chip checks in patch 1/2
- add a second patch that protects the structures that can be accessed
by user-space calls against concurrent removal
Bartosz Golaszewski (2):
gpiolib: cdev: fix NULL-pointer dereferences
gpiolib: protect the GPIO device against being dropped while in use by
user-space
