From 69e2b602966533256edce1ed1b24fec23fe05962 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Satyam Sharma Date: Wed, 15 Aug 2007 20:05:38 +0530 Subject: [PATCH] ieee1394: Fix kthread stopping in nodemgr_host_thread The nodemgr host thread can exit on its own even when kthread_should_stop is not true, on receiving a signal (might never happen in practice, as it ignores signals). But considering kthread_stop() must not be mixed with kthreads that can exit on their own, I think changing the code like this is clearer. This change means the thread can cut its sleep short when receive a signal but looking at the code around, that sounds okay (and again, it might never actually recieve a signal in practice).
