From: Alan Stern Date: Tue, 22 May 2007 13:38:39 +0000 (-0400) Subject: USB: make the autosuspend workqueue thread freezable X-Git-Tag: v3.12-rc1~29363^2~6 X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=7ed92f1a149dddc3cb537ccd7441e98adac12c3e;p=kernel%2Fkernel-generic.git USB: make the autosuspend workqueue thread freezable This patch (as881b) makes the ksuspend_usb_wq workqueue freezable. We don't want a rogue workqueue thread running around, unexpectedly suspending or resuming USB devices in the middle of a system sleep transition. This fixes Bugzilla #8498.
