ACPI / PM: Walk physical_node_list under physical_node_lock
The list of physical devices corresponding to an ACPI device object is walked by acpi_system_wakeup_device_seq_show() and physical_device_enable_wakeup() without taking that object's physical_node_lock mutex. Since each of those functions may be run at any time as a result of a user space action, the lack of appropriate locking in them may lead to a kernel crash if that happens during device hot-add or hot-remove involving the device object in question. Fix the issue by modifying acpi_system_wakeup_device_seq_show() and physical_device_enable_wakeup() to use physical_node_lock as appropriate. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.
