From: Fabio Estevam <redacted> Date: Sat, 5 Nov 2016 17:45:07 -0200 Subject: mmc: mxs: Initialize the spinlock prior to using it From: Fabio Estevam <redacted> commit f91346e8b5f46aaf12f1df26e87140584ffd1b3f upstream. An interrupt may occur right after devm_request_irq() is called and prior to the spinlock initialization, leading to a kernel oops, as the interrupt handler uses the spinlock. In order to prevent this problem, move the spinlock initialization prior to requesting the interrupts.
