Subject: [request for stable inclusion] tipc: fix lockdep warning during bearer initialization
Date: Wed, 7 Aug 2013 11:23:08 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <5201BD9C.4070407@huawei.com> (raw)

Hi Ying Xue, Jon, Paul or David,

4225a398c1352a7a5c14dc07277cb5cc4473983b
tipc: fix lockdep warning during bearer initialization

This looks applicable to stable-3.0/3.2/3.4, that fixed one deadlock. 
With the tipc-config cmd, I can reproduce that. The deadlock possibly
occur when the second TIPC bearer is registered, the deadlock can perhaps
really happen. And this patch works well. But git am or patch -p1 failed,
because a previous patch [commit 617d3c7a5 (tipc: compress out gratuitous
extra carriage returns)] deletes some blank lines. With some modifies, it
was built successful for me. What do you think?

And the bug was fixed in 3.7; The commit got its way into mainline in 3.7
cycle.

Thanks!
Wang Weidong
