Geert Uytterhoeven 23abff7b98 ARM: amba: Fix race condition with driver_override
commit 6a7228d90d upstream.

The driver_override implementation is susceptible to a race condition
when different threads are reading vs storing a different driver
override.  Add locking to avoid this race condition.

Cfr. commits 6265539776 ("driver core: platform: fix race
condition with driver_override") and 9561475db6 ("PCI: Fix race
condition with driver_override").

Fixes: 3cf3857134 ("ARM: 8256/1: driver coamba: add device binding path 'driver_override'")

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

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
