The mutex code clearly states mutex_trylock() must not be used in interrupt context (see kernel/locking/mutex.c), hence we used a semaphore here. Unless the mutex code is changed to allow this, we cannot switch away from semaphores. Otherwise, this patch (given Benjamin's comments are addressed) looks good: Reviewed-by: David Herrmann <dh.herrmann@xxxxxxxxx> Thanks David -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-input" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
