In commit 613051da Author: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch> Date: Wed Dec 14 00:08:06 2016 +0100 drm: locking&new iterators for connector_list we've went to extreme lengths to make sure connector iterations works in any context, without introducing any additional locking context. This worked, except for a small fumble in the implementation: When we actually race with a concurrent connector unplug event, and our temporary connector reference turns out to be the final one, then everything breaks: We call the connector release function from whatever context we happen to be in, which can be an irq/atomic context. And connector freeing grabs all kinds of locks and stuff. Fix this by creating a specially safe put function for connetor_iter, which (in this rare case) punts the cleanup to a worker. Reported-by:
