Please pay attention to the following section of code in cec_config_thread_func():
   3 unconfigure:
   2         for (i = 0; i < las->num_log_addrs; i++)
   1                 las->log_addr[i] = CEC_LOG_ADDR_INVALID;
1573         cec_adap_unconfigure(adap);           // [1], is_configured = false;
   1         adap->is_configuring = false;	   // [2], is_configuring = false;
   2         adap->must_reconfigure = false;
   3         adap->kthread_config = NULL;
   4         complete(&adap->config_completion);
   5         mutex_unlock(&adap->lock);		   // [3], Afterwards

And the following code is included in cec_claim_log-addrs():
   3         } else if (block) {
   2                 mutex_unlock(&adap->lock);
   1                 wait_for_completion(&adap->config_completion);
1607                 mutex_lock(&adap->lock);      // [4], During the period before re obtaining the adap->lock, how did cec_claim_log-addrs() re-enter?

BR,
edward
