crypto: nx - Fix RCU warning in nx842_OF_upd_status
The function nx842_OF_upd_status triggers a sparse RCU warning when it directly dereferences the RCU-protected devdata. This appears to be an accident as there was another variable of the same name that was passed in from the caller. After it was removed (because the main purpose of using it, to update the status member was itself removed) the global variable unintenionally stood in as its replacement. This patch restores the devdata parameter. Fixes: 90fd73f912f0 ("crypto: nx - remove pSeries NX 'status' field") Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
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.
