Ronald Tschalär 4b9d1ab711 ACPI / SBS: Fix rare oops when removing modules
[ Upstream commit 757c968c442397f1249bb775a7c8c03842e3e0c7 ]

There was a small race when removing the sbshc module where
smbus_alarm() had queued acpi_smbus_callback() for deferred execution
but it hadn't been run yet, so that when it did run hc had been freed
and the module unloaded, resulting in an invalid paging request.

A similar race existed when removing the sbs module with regards to
acpi_sbs_callback() (which is called from acpi_smbus_callback()).

We therefore need to ensure no callbacks are pending or executing before
the cleanups are done and the modules are removed.

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.
