[ Upstream commit 060eabe8fbe726aca341b518366da4d79e338100 ] A driver's 'reclaim_memory' callback can race with 'probe' or 'remove' because it will be called whenever memory pressure is detected. To avoid such race, this commit embeds a spinlock in each 'xenbus_device' and make 'xenbus' to hold the lock while the corresponded callbacks are running.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
