What does the "dashboard" program do?  Hold the port open?

We don't need to keep the dbg statements here, do we?

You can't return with a lock held.

Your tabs and spaces got all mixed up, and it can't be applied.  Also, I
need a "Signed-off-by:" line to be able to accept it.  Care to read the
file Documentation/SubmittingPatches for how to format a patch so we can
take it?

Also, run the patch through scripts/checkpatch.pl and resolve the coding
style issues before resending please.
