Hi Simran,
Please post all revision histories below the --- not just the most
recent.
Does this lock enforce the needed "atomicity" in the write_frequency
function? I read Jonathans comment on a previous revision about
"ensuring the spi bus frequency and sampling frequency of the device
are changed in an atomic fashion"
Is it possible for another spi bus transaction (read or write) to
occur between the read and write in write_frequency?
