drivers/base: stop new probing during shutdown
There is a race window in device_shutdown(), which may cause -1. parent device shut down before child or -2. no shutdown on a new probing device. For 1st, taking the following scenario: device_shutdown new plugin device list_del_init(parent_dev); spin_unlock(list_lock); device_add(child) probe child shutdown parent_dev --> now child is on the tail of devices_kset For 2nd, taking the following scenario: device_shutdown new plugin device device_add(dev) device_lock(dev); ... device_unlock(dev); probe dev --> now, the new occurred dev has no opportunity to shutdown To fix this race issue, just prevent the new probing request. With this logic, device_shutdown() is more similar to dpm_prepare(). Signed-off-by: Pingfan Liu <kernelfans@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: Rafael J.
