From 545ebd9a9be6bcbcf3e8dc24b874bfd634131946 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Linus Walleij Date: Mon, 30 May 2016 17:11:59 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] gpio: drop lock before reading GPIO direction When adding the gpiochip, the GPIO HW drivers' callback get_direction() could get called in atomic context. Some of the GPIO HW drivers may sleep when accessing the register. Move the lock before initializing the descriptors.
