drivers: staging: rtl8192e: Fix deadlock in rtllib_beacons_stop()
stable inclusion from stable-v5.10.122 commit 0f69d7d5e918aa43423d86bd17ddb11b1b5e8ada category: bugfix bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I5W6OE Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=0f69d7d5e918aa43423d86bd17ddb11b1b5e8ada -------------------------------- [ Upstream commit 9b6bdbd9 ] There is a deadlock in rtllib_beacons_stop(), which is shown below: (Thread 1) | (Thread 2) | rtllib_send_beacon() rtllib_beacons_stop() | mod_timer() spin_lock_irqsave() //(1) | (wait a time) ... | rtllib_send_beacon_cb() del_timer_sync() | spin_lock_irqsave() //(2) (wait timer to stop) | ... We hold ieee->beacon_lock in position (1) of thread 1 and use del_timer_sync() to wait timer to stop, but timer handler also need ieee->beacon_lock in position (2) of thread 2. As a result, rtllib_beacons_stop() will block forever. This patch extracts del_timer_sync() from the protection of spin_lock_irqsave(), which could let timer handler to obtain the needed lock.
