From: Jean-Francois Moine Date: Tue, 18 Nov 2008 18:52:31 +0000 (-0300) Subject: V4L/DVB (9690): gspca: Lock the subdrivers via module_get/put. X-Git-Tag: v2.6.28-rc7~1^2~6 X-Git-Url: http://pilppa.com/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=5c4fa002b1c7b40f65fa911ae17a823ec9e26ab2;p=linux-2.6-omap-h63xx.git V4L/DVB (9690): gspca: Lock the subdrivers via module_get/put. The previous subdriver protection against rmmod was done via the file operations table in the device descriptor. On device disconnection while streaming, the device structure was freed at close time, and the module_put still used the module name in the freed area. Now, explicit module get/put are done on open and close.
