[PATCH v2] videobuf2: Add missing lock held on vb2_fop_relase

From: Ricardo Ribalda
Date: Sat Oct 19 2013 - 12:08:28 EST


vb2_fop_relase does not held the lock although it is modifying the
queue->owner field.

This could lead to race conditions on the vb2_perform_io function
when multiple applications are accessing the video device via
read/write API:

v2: Add bug found by Sylvester Nawrocki

fimc-capture and fimc-lite where calling vb2_fop_release with the lock held.
Therefore a new __vb2_fop_release function has been created to be used by
drivers that overload the release function.
