From 7b7be5f379bd001c86372c2e042cb7779c4f0a06 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Oliver Neukum Date: Tue, 11 May 2010 14:07:03 -0700 Subject: hp_accel: fix race in device removal commit 06efbeb4a47b6f865e1c9d175ab9d6e90b69ae9e upstream. The work queue has to be flushed after the device has been made inaccessible. The patch closes a window during which a work queue might remain active after the device is removed and would then lead to ACPI calls with undefined behavior.
