net: lapbether: Prevent racing when checking whether the netif is running
There are two "netif_running" checks in this driver. One is in "lapbeth_xmit" and the other is in "lapbeth_rcv". They serve to make sure that the LAPB APIs called in these functions are called before "lapb_unregister" is called by the "ndo_stop" function. However, these "netif_running" checks are unreliable, because it's possible that immediately after "netif_running" returns true, "ndo_stop" is called (which causes "lapb_unregister" to be called). This patch adds locking to make sure "lapbeth_xmit" and "lapbeth_rcv" can reliably check and ensure the netif is running while doing their work. Fixes: 1da177e4c3f4 ("Linux-2.6.12-rc2") Signed-off-by: Xie He <xie.he.0141@gmail.com> Acked-by: Martin Schiller <ms@dev.tdt.de> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
