Subject: Fix potential scheduling while atomic in mesh_path_add.
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.26-rc3~65^2~14^2~5
X-Git-Url: http://pilppa.com/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=6d6936e2ea82ebcbdd12d489b7b5ccf430de52f1;p=linux-2.6-omap-h63xx.git

Fix potential scheduling while atomic in mesh_path_add.

Calling synchronize_rcu() under write-lock-ed pathtbl_resize_lock may
result in this warning (and other side effects).

It looks safe just dropping this lock before calling synchronize_rcu.
