We have discussed this several times already.

https://lore.kernel.org/all/10c4663b-dd65-a545-786d-10aed6e6e5e9@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/

Module name is completely irrelevant when selecting a kernel configuration.

Thanks.

I believe you know that regmap uses a default lock when no external lock 
is given. So, I assume you mean that maybe we could set 
'disable_locking' for the regmap here.

It's nice to be occasionally pushed to think "out of the box". And yes, 
disabling regmap lock is really out of my "normal box" :)

I didn't go through all of the code yet, but I think pretty much all of 
the sequences which end up to register writes are indeed protected by 
the mutex. (Well, probe is not but it is expected to only update one bit 
while rest of the register should stay fixed).

It may be we could live without regmap_lock when driver is in it's 
current state, but I am not convinced the performance improvement is 
worth the risk. Having regmap unprotected is not common, and it is also 
not easy to spot when making changes to the driver. In my opinion it is 
a bit like asking for a nose-bleed unless there is really heavy reasons 
to drop the lock... In this case, having the regmap_lock (which is 
pretty much never locked because we have the mutex as you said) is 
probably not a penalty that matters.

Could make sense indeed. I'll see how it would look like, thanks.
