From 7176522cdca1f0b78a1434b41761f0334511822a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peter Hurley Date: Fri, 5 Aug 2011 10:44:21 -0400 Subject: Bluetooth: cmtp: Fix deadlock in session deletion Commit fada4ac339 introduced the usage of kthread API. kthread_stop is a blocking function which returns only when the thread exits. In this case, the thread can't exit because it's waiting for the write lock, which is being held by cmtp_del_connection() which is waiting for the thread to exit -- deadlock. Revert cmtp_reset_ctr to its original behavior: non-blocking signalling for the session to terminate. Signed-off-by: Peter Hurley Signed-off-by: Gustavo F.
