What it is

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().
