[PATCH 1/2] drm/dp: look up the mstb passed into work function (v2)

Dave Airlie airlied at gmail.com
Sun Jun 21 21:40:43 PDT 2015


From: Dave Airlie <airlied at redhat.com>

We should validate the passed in mstb under the lock
this should stop us getting an invalid mstb here.

(first attempt with cancelling work has lockdep issues).
Bugzilla: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/45369

v2: update bugzilla, add some notes on why passing mst_primary
is okay.
