[PATCH RT 19/36] rtmutex: enable deadlock detection in ww_mutex_lock functions

From: Steven Rostedt
Date: Thu Mar 12 2015 - 15:28:39 EST


3.12.38-rt53-rc1 stable review patch.
If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Gustavo Bittencourt <gbitten@xxxxxxxxx>

The functions ww_mutex_lock_interruptible and ww_mutex_lock should return -EDEADLK when faced with
a deadlock. To do so, the paramenter detect_deadlock in rt_mutex_slowlock must be TRUE.
This patch corrects potential deadlocks when running PREEMPT_RT with nouveau driver.
