From: Valkeinen Tomi (Nokia-D/Helsinki) <Tomi.Valkeinen@xxxxxxxxx> From: Tomi Valkeinen <tomi.valkeinen@xxxxxxxxx> taal_bl_update_status was missing locks to protect taal_data. This caused a kernel crash randomly, as the code attempted to set the brightness while the OMAP's DSI block was actually disabled.
