From b64c115eb22516ecd187c74ad6de3f1693f1dc7b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dave Airlie Date: Tue, 14 Sep 2010 20:14:38 +1000 Subject: drm: fix race between driver loading and userspace open. Not 100% sure this is due to BKL removal, its most likely a combination of that + userspace timing changes in udev/plymouth. The drm adds the sysfs device before the driver has completed internal loading, this causes udev to make the node and plymouth to open it before we've completed loading. The proper solution is to delay the sysfs manipulation until later in loading however this causes knock on issues with sysfs connector nodes, so we can use the global mutex to serialise loading and userspace opens.
