Merge tag 'firewire-fixes-6.19-rc8' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ieee1394/linux1394
Pull firewire fix from Takashi Sakamoto: "Fix a race condition introduced in v6.18. Andreas Persson discovered this issue while working with Focusrite Saffire Pro 40 (TCD33070). The fw_card instance maintains a linked list of pending transactions, which must be protected against concurrent access. However, a commit b5725cfa4120 ("firewire: core: use spin lock specific to timer for split transaction") unintentionally allowed concurrent accesses to this list. Fix this by adjusting the relevant critical sections to properly serialize access" * tag 'firewire-fixes-6.19-rc8' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ieee1394/linux1394: firewire: core: fix race condition against transaction list
