fbdev: fix race in device_create 2008-05-20T20:31:53+00:00 Greg Kroah-Hartman gregkh@suse.de 2008-05-15T20:44:08+00:00 8b485877e0b9eb23c3579f50cca165f75442c6cc There is a race from when a device is created with device_create() and then the drvdata is set with a call to dev_set_drvdata() in which a sysfs file could be open, yet the drvdata will be NULL, causing all sorts of bad things to happen. This patch fixes the problem by using the new function, device_create_drvdata().
