      V4L/DVB (8108): Fix open/close race in saa7134 · a1789873
      Arjan van de Ven 提交于
      The saa7134 driver uses a (non-atomic) variable in an attempt to
      only allow one opener of the device (how it deals with sending
      the fd over unix sockets I don't know).
      
      Unfortunately, the release function first decrements this variable,
      and THEN goes on to disable more of the device. This allows for
      a race where another opener of the device comes in after the decrement of
      the variable, configures the hardware just to then see the hardware
      be disabled by the rest of the release function.
      
      This patch makes the release function use the same lock as the open
      function to protect the hardware as well as the variable (which now
      at least has some locking to protect it).
