Subject: [PATCH] ch: synchronize ch_probe() and ch_open()
References: bsc#1124235
Git-commit: 1c7ce4bcfb9a54073d4043c00a336a064ca6e231
Patch-mainline: v5.7-rc1
The 'ch' device node is created before the configuration is
being read in, which leads to a race window when ch_open() is called
before that.
To avoid any races we should be taking the device mutex during
ch_readconfig() and ch_init_elem(), and also during ch_open().
That ensures ch_probe is finished before ch_open() completes.
