That looks good on a first glance, and I'm sure it felt good to get rid
of the locking workaround :-)
However, is this safe? From looking at the short datasheet of the si2168,
it seems that the mux is used to open up the channel to the tuner? But
what happens is there are two parallel accesses, one to the tuner and one
to the si2168 chip? With your change, it could happen that the access to
the si2168 happens while the gate to the tuner is open. Can that break
anything?
I.e.
thread one thread two
---------- ----------
open gate
access si2168
access tuner
close gate
If that is safe, then I don't understand why the gate isn't left open
at all times? The short datasheet is too short to answer my questions...
Also, my series needs some Tested-by (and Reviewed-by for that matter),
and I assume that you have tested it? Is it ok to add something like
that from you? I understand that you may only be able to test your
corner of the series, but that would still be very helpful. Thanks!
Cheers,
Peter
