[PATCH] Bluetooth: Fix hidp disconnect deadlock

From: Peter Hurley <hidden>
Date: 2011-06-25 21:32:35
Subsystem: bluetooth subsystem, the rest · Maintainers: Marcel Holtmann, Luiz Augusto von Dentz, Linus Torvalds

Release reader lock on r/w sem before stopping khidp thread (which needs to
claim the writer lock on sem before unlinking the session).

NB: kthread_stop waits for thread completion.
