-Subject: [PATCH] vchiq_arm: Add completion records under the mutex
-
-An issue was observed when flushing openmax components
-which generate a large number of messages returning
-buffers to host.
-
-We occasionally found a duplicate message from 16
-messages prior, resulting in a buffer returned twice.
-
-While only one thread adds completions, without the
-mutex you don't get the protection of the automatic
-memory barrier you get with synchronisation objects.
