The csc/scaler device private struct is released by
ipu_csc_scaler_video_device_release(), which can be called
by video_unregister_device() if there are no users
of the underlying struct video device.
Therefore, the mutex can't be held when calling
video_unregister_device() as its memory may be freed
by it, leading to a kernel oops.
Fortunately, the fix is quite simple as no locking
is needed when calling video_unregister_device(): v4l2-core
already has its own internal locking, and the structures
are also properly refcounted.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
