[06/87] mtd: fix race in cfi_cmdset_0001 driver

From: Greg KH
Date: Mon Mar 21 2011 - 19:15:15 EST


2.6.37-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Joakim Tjernlund <Joakim.Tjernlund@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit ecf3fde07c8dcb92a1bf3fbdfe70905d85cd00e1 upstream.

As inval_cache_and_wait_for_operation() drop and reclaim the lock
to invalidate the cache, some other thread may suspend the operation
before reaching the for(;;) loop. Therefore the loop must start with
checking the chip->state before reading status from the chip.
