Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: mt9m114: Fix deadlock in get_frame_interval/set_frame_interval
Getting / Setting the frame interval using the V4L2 subdev pad ops
get_frame_interval/set_frame_interval causes a deadlock, as the
subdev state is locked in the [1] but also in the driver itself.
In [2] it's described that the caller is responsible to acquire and
release the lock in this case. Therefore, acquiring the lock in the
driver is wrong.
Remove the lock acquisitions/releases from mt9m114_ifp_get_frame_interval()
and mt9m114_ifp_set_frame_interval().
