From 364222966c6cb48898b83f9a912bff4cedcda2cd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Frediano Ziglio Date: Thu, 24 Sep 2015 14:25:15 +0100 Subject: [PATCH 2/2] drm/qxl: avoid dependency lock qxl_bo_unref calls drm_gem_object_unreference_unlocked which locks dev->struct_mutex. However this lock could be already locked if the call came from qxl_gem_object_free. As we don't need to call qxl_bo_ref/qxl_bo_unref cause qxl_release_list_add will hold a reference by itself avoid to call them and the possible deadlock.
