Anand,
Thank you for the effort put into digging into this issue. Unfortunately
this approach is bad. You cannot fix one issue without looking at the
big picture of the given subsystem. This patch does exactly this - fixes
your warning but probably introduces bugs all over the place.
Although the set_polarity callback (called under the lock) is not
described as sleeping-allowed but some implementations do it in a
sleeping way. This is really easy to find, e.g.:
pwm_omap_dmtimer_set_polarity.
This means: no.
Best regards,
Krzysztof
