mmc: core: Fix null pointer dereference due to illegal mmc request
Fix a race condition that can lead to null pointer dereference while the MMC transfers are going on. 1) mmc_request_done() -> mmc_wait_for_data_done -> step1: update is_done_rcv step2: wake_up sleeping thread (mmcqd) waiting for is_done_rcv 2) mmcqd -> mmc_wait_for_data_req_done step4: wait for is_done_rcv or is_new_req step5: is_new_req set from block layer context and mmcqd is woken up step6: let's say step1 is done, so complete the current request step7: fetch new request and issue to host layer step8: fetch one more request and wait for previous request to complete In the above execution contexts, if step4-step8 happens between step1 and step2 a null pointer dereference is observed - [ 29.483302] Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000488 [ 29.490366] pgd = c0004000 [ 29.493054] [00000488] *pgd=00000000 [ 29.518937] PC is at do_raw_spin_lock+0x8/0x13c [ 29.523445] LR is at _raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x20/0x28 [ 30.108789] [<c0339cd4>] (do_raw_spin_lock+0x8/0x13c) from [ 30.118418] [<c095d178>] (_raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x20/0x28) from [ 30.127445] [<c0142ef4>] (__wake_up+0x20/0x50) from [ 30.136124] [<c0663f70>] (mmc_request_done+0x30c/0x368) from [ 30.145932] [<c067bd98>] (sdhci_tasklet_finish+0x130/0x13c) from Change-Id: I9a21431b5fd9bb9bbcb5c18a9895096fe845e64b Signed-off-by: Sujit Reddy Thumma <sthumma@codeaurora.org> [merez@codeaurora.org: fixed conflicts due to missing stop transmission] Signed-off-by: Maya Erez <merez@codeaurora.org> [subhashj@codeaurora.org: fixed trivial merge conflicts] Signed-off-by: Subhash Jadavani <subhashj@codeaurora.org>
