From 96d16c3088a924a44175d2923cc0eafa0d8bbecc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Francesco VIRLINZI Date: Mon, 5 Jan 2015 11:04:13 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] pinctrl: st: avoid multiple mutex lock Using the sysfs inteface to inspect the pins configuration the system can walk around a path which acquires the same mutex twice. On STiH407 platform, for example : cat /sys/kernel/debug/pinctrl/920f080.pin-controller-front0/pinconf-pins hangs the kernel and never returns. With this patch the mutex is temporary freed.
