When two such events race on different CPUs\nboth can pass the !priv->switches check and register the priv->switches\ninput device twice, resulting in a duplicate sysfs entry and a subsequent\nNULL pointer dereference.\n\nThis is the same class of bug fixed by commit e075c3b13a0a (\"platform/x86:\nintel-vbtn: Protect ACPI notify handler against recursion\") for the\nsibling intel-vbtn driver.\n\nProtect intel-hid notify_handler() from racing with itself with a mutex\nto fix this."
