    staging: vc04_services: Fix RCU dereference check · 0cea730c
    Padmanabha Srinivasaiah authored
    In service_callback path RCU dereferenced pointer struct vchiq_service
    need to be accessed inside rcu read-critical section.
    
    Also userdata/user_service part of vchiq_service is accessed around
    different synchronization mechanism, getting an extra reference to a
    pointer keeps sematics simpler and avoids prolonged graceperiod.
    
    Accessing vchiq_service with rcu_read_[lock/unlock] fixes below issue.
