Subject: [PATCH 2.6.34.y] hostap_cs: fix sleeping function called from invalid context
Date: Mon, 17 Jan 2011 14:04:25 +0100
Message-Id: <1295269465-4903-1-git-send-email-sgruszka@redhat.com>
X-Scanned-By: MIMEDefang 2.67 on 10.5.11.12

commit 4e5518ca53be29c1ec3c00089c97bef36bfed515 upstream.

pcmcia_request_irq() and pcmcia_enable_device() are intended
to be called from process context (first function allocate memory
with GFP_KERNEL, second take a mutex). We can not take spin lock
and call them.

It's safe to move spin lock after pcmcia_enable_device() as we
still hold off IRQ until dev->base_addr is 0 and driver will
not proceed with interrupts when is not ready.

Patch resolves:
