This patch looks like it should be in the 3.9-stable tree, should we apply
it?

------------------

From: "Daniel Drake <dsd@laptop.org>"

commit ea05fea9042620ac3b8ab9a3e5e4d2ed80c89244 upstream

There is currently a race condition in the btmrvl_remove_card() which
is causing hangs on suspend for OLPC. When the race occurs,
kthread_stop() never returns.

The problem is that btmrvl_service_main_thread() calls kthread_should_stop()
and then does a fair number of things before restarting the loop and
sleeping.

If the thread gets stopped after kthread_should_stop() is checked, but
before the sleep happens, the thread will go to sleep and won't necessarily
be woken up.

Move the kthread_should_stop() check into a race-free place.
