Subject: [PATCH v4 2/3] vt: fix locking around vt_bind/vt_unbind
Date: Tue, 16 Dec 2014 00:16:00 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1418681761-3709-2-git-send-email-imre.deak@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1418681761-3709-1-git-send-email-imre.deak@intel.com>
Currently vt_bind and vt_unbind access at least the con_driver object
and registered_con_driver array without holding the console lock. Fix
this by locking around the whole function in each case.
