[PATCH 11/13] FB: sa1100: make GPIO configuration setting safe

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The sa1100fb driver needs to set the GPIO direction and alternate
function register according to the panel that we're driving.  We've
done this in the driver by read-modify-writing the register, which
may cause problems with races.  Fix this with a minimal change.
