[PATCH v5 04/46] pwm: get rid of pwm->lock

Wed Mar 30 13:05:00 PDT 2016


PWM devices are not protected against concurrent accesses. The lock in
pwm_device might let PWM users think it is, but it's actually only
protecting the enabled state.

Removing this lock should be fine as long as all PWM users are aware that
accesses to the PWM device have to be serialized, which seems to be the
case for all of them except the sysfs interface.
Patch the sysfs code by adding a lock to the pwm_export struct and making
sure it's taken for all accesses to the exported PWM device.
