driver core: platform: fix race condition with driver_override
The driver_override implementation is susceptible to race condition when different threads are reading vs storing a different driver override. Add locking to avoid race condition. Fixes: 3d713e0e382e ("driver core: platform: add device binding path 'driver_override'") Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Adrian Salido <salidoa@google.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
