[ATM]: avoid race conditions related to atm_devs list
Use semaphore to protect atm_devs list, as no one need access to it from interrupt context. Avoid race conditions between atm_dev_register(), atm_dev_lookup() and atm_dev_deregister(). Fix double spin_unlock() bug. Signed-off-by: Stanislaw Gruszka <stf_xl@wp.pl> Signed-off-by: Chas Williams <chas@cmf.nrl.navy.mil> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
