3.19.8-ckt4 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Martin Sperl <kernel@martin.sperl.org>

commit 8e76ef88f607174082023f50b87fe12dcdbe5db5 upstream.

Fix a race (with some kernel configurations) where a queued
master->pump_messages runs and frees dummy_tx/rx before
spi_unmap_msg is running (or is finished).

This results in the following messages:
  BUG: Bad page state in process
  page:db7ba030 count:0 mapcount:0 mapping:  (null) index:0x0
  flags: 0x200(arch_1)
  page dumped because: PAGE_FLAGS_CHECK_AT_PREP flag set
  ...
