    [PATCH] Fix 2.6.21 rfcomm lockups · 0de1517e
    Mark Lord 提交于
    Any attempt to open/use a bluetooth rfcomm device locks up
    scheduling completely on my machine.
    
    Interrupts (ping, alt-sysrq) seem to be alive, but nothing else.
    
    This was working fine in 2.6.20, broken now in 2.6.21-rc2-git*
    
    Reverting this change (below) fixes it:

    | | [Bluetooth] Make use of device_move() for RFCOMM TTY devices
    | | In the case of bound RFCOMM TTY devices the parent is not available
    | before its usage. So when opening a RFCOMM TTY device, move it to
    | the corresponding ACL device as a child. When closing the device,
    | move it back to the virtual device tree.

    The simplest fix for this bug is to prevent sysfs_move_dir()
    from self-deadlocking when (old_parent == new_parent).
    
    This patch prevents total system lockup when using rfcomm devices.
