[PATCH 3/9] V4L/DVB (5021): Cx88xx: Fix lockup on suspend

From: Mauro Carvalho Chehab
Date: Mon Jan 15 2007 - 14:12:20 EST



From: Robert Hancock <hancockr@xxxxxxx>

Suspending with the cx88xx module loaded causes the system to lock up
because the cx88_audio_thread kthread was missing a try_to_freeze()
call, which caused it to go into a tight loop and result in softlockup
when suspending. Fix that.
