[PATCH 3/4] Drivers: hv: vmbus: protect vmbus_get_outgoing_channel() against channel removal

From: Vitaly Kuznetsov
Date: Tue Feb 03 2015 - 12:01:30 EST


list_for_each_safe() we have in vmbus_get_outgoing_channel() works, however, we
are not protected against the channel being removed (e.g. after receiving rescind
offer). Users of this function (storvsc_do_io() is the only one at this moment)
can get a link to an already freed channel. Make vmbus_get_outgoing_channel()
search holding primary->lock as child channels are not being freed unless they're
removed from parent's list.
