[PATCH v2 5/5] intel_scu_ipc: protect dev member assignment on ->remove()

From: Andy Shevchenko
Date: Mon Oct 12 2015 - 07:20:04 EST


Protect the dev member assignment in ->remove() since user may potentially call
unbind from a sysfs even if the driver is built-in. The latter might be racy
with ongoing SCU communication.
