From: Claudiu Beznea <claudiu.beznea.uj@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> spinlock in rzg2l_mod_clock_endisable() is intended to protect the accesses to hardware register. There is no need to protect the instructions that set temporary variable which will be then written to register. With this only one write to one clock register is executed thus locking/unlocking rmw_lock is removed.
