[PATCH 2/2] gpio: use a mutex to protect the list of GPIO devices

From: Bartosz Golaszewski
Date: Mon Nov 27 2023 - 14:38:10 EST


From: Bartosz Golaszewski <bartosz.golaszewski@xxxxxxxxxx>

The global list of GPIO devices is never modified or accessed from
atomic context so it's fine to protect it using a mutex. Add a new
global lock dedicated to the gpio_devices list and use it whenever
accessing or modifying it.

While at it: fold the sysfs registering of existing devices into
gpiolib.c and make gpio_devices static within its compilation unit.
