commit 04e046ca57ebed3943422dee10eec9e73aec081e upstream. pci-epc-mem uses a bitmap to manage the Endpoint outbound (OB) address region. This address region will be shared by multiple endpoint functions (in the case of multi function endpoint) and it has to be protected from concurrent access to avoid updating an inconsistent state. Use a mutex to protect bitmap updates to prevent the memory allocation API from returning incorrect addresses.

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.
