[PATCH 02/22] gpio: of: assign and read the hog pointer atomically

From: Bartosz Golaszewski
Date: Tue Jan 30 2024 - 07:49:11 EST


From: Bartosz Golaszewski <bartosz.golaszewski@xxxxxxxxxx>

The device nodes representing GPIO hogs cannot be deleted without
unregistering the GPIO chip so there's no need to serialize their access.
However we must ensure that users can get the right address so write and
read it atomically.
