Subject: V4L/DVB (10943): cx88: Prevent general protection fault on rmmod
X-Git-Url: http://pilppa.com/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=569b7ec73abf576f9a9e4070d213aadf2cce73cb;p=linux-2.6-omap-h63xx.git

V4L/DVB (10943): cx88: Prevent general protection fault on rmmod

When unloading the cx8800 driver I sometimes get a general protection
fault. Analysis revealed a race in cx88_ir_stop(). It can be solved by
using a delayed work instead of a timer for infrared input polling.
