Hi Hans,

Thanks for the patches.

 Hi Prabhakar,

 These two patches add protection to the dma_queue. We discovered that not
 locking caused race conditions, which caused the display DMA to jam. After
 adding the lock we never saw this again.

 It makes sense as well since the interrupt routine and normal code both
 manipulated the same list.

 It's fixed for both capture and display.

Acked-by: Prabhakar Lad prabhakar@ti.com

I'll queue these patches for 3.8.
