Subject[RFC/PATCH 0/3] locking fixes for cx88
Hi,

Here's a possible fix based on a patch by Ben Hutchings and
corrections from Andi Huber. Warning: probably full of mistakes (my
fault) since I'm not familiar with any of this stuff. Untested.
Review and testing would be welcome.

[media] cx88: fix locking of sub-driver operations
[media] cx88: use a mutex to protect cx8802_devlist
