Kent Gibson 249cbac445 gpiolib: cdev: add gpio_device locking wrapper around gpio_ioctl() 
[ Upstream commit 1d656bd259 ]

While the GPIO cdev gpio_ioctl() call is in progress, the kernel can
call gpiochip_remove() which will set gdev->chip to NULL, after which
any subsequent access will cause a crash.

gpio_ioctl() was overlooked by the previous fix to protect syscalls
(bdbbae241a), so add protection for that.

Fixes: bdbbae241a ("gpiolib: protect the GPIO device against being dropped while in use by user-space")
Fixes: d7c51b47ac ("gpio: userspace ABI for reading/writing GPIO lines")
Fixes: 3c0d9c635a ("gpiolib: cdev: support GPIO_V2_GET_LINE_IOCTL and GPIO_V2_LINE_GET_VALUES_IOCTL")
Fixes: aad955842d ("gpiolib: cdev: support GPIO_V2_GET_LINEINFO_IOCTL and GPIO_V2_GET_LINEINFO_WATCH_IOCTL")

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

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.
