drm/exynos: fix a possible null-pointer dereference due to data race …
…in exynos_drm_crtc_atomic_disable() [ Upstream commit 2e63972 ] The variable crtc->state->event is often protected by the lock crtc->dev->event_lock when is accessed. However, it is accessed as a condition of an if statement in exynos_drm_crtc_atomic_disable() without holding the lock: if (crtc->state->event && !crtc->state->active) However, if crtc->state->event is changed to NULL by another thread right after the conditions of the if statement is checked to be true, a null-pointer dereference can occur in drm_crtc_send_vblank_event(): e->pipe = pipe; To fix this possible null-pointer dereference caused by data race, the spin lock coverage is extended to protect the if statement as well as the function call to drm_crtc_send_vblank_event().
