Subject: [PATCH RFC] isdn: avoid races in capidrv

In several places, capidrv sends a CAPI message to the ISDN
device and then updates its internal state accordingly.
If the response message from the device arrives before the
state is updated, it may be rejected or processed incorrectly.
Avoid these races by updating the state before emitting the
message.

Signed-off-by: Tilman Schmidt <tilman@...p.cc>
---

Specifically, my upcoming CAPI port of the Gigaset driver triggers
this race quite reliably right after loading capidrv, on the initial
LISTEN_REQ. If there are no objections, I intend to submit this
patch together with my Gigaset driver patches for 2.6.32.

Thanks,
Tilman
