This is unsafe, as the runtime PM callbacks are called from the PM workqueue, so this may deadlock when handling an i2c attached clock, which may already hold the clk_prepare mutex from another context. Signed-off-by: Alexander Stein <alexander.stein@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- This is the imx-lpi2c equivalent to commit d9a22d713acb ("i2c: imx: avoid taking clk_prepare mutex in PM callbacks"). This patch needs to be used together with [1] in order to fix the deadlock conditions. Commit message is shamlessly taken from commit d9a22d713acb.
