From d989dc20c508cd82e2a95ff5d6c4bb091803f1c8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jia-Ju Bai Date: Thu, 1 Jun 2017 04:13:54 -0300 Subject: [media] ivtv: Fix a sleep-in-atomic bug in snd_ivtv_pcm_hw_free The driver may sleep under a spin lock, and the function call path is: snd_ivtv_pcm_hw_free (acquire the lock by spin_lock_irqsave) vfree --> may sleep To fix it, the "substream->runtime->dma_area" is passed to a temporary value, and mark it NULL when holding the lock. The memory is freed by vfree through the temporary value outside the lock holding.
