[PATCH 05/10] NFC: st95hf: remove exchange_lock

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This patch removes the exchange_lock sempahore. Its intended function
was two-fold:

a) Lock the remove() callback of the driver against the ISR, so that
   the resources only go away after the ISR has finished. This is
   unnecessary though, because `rm_lock' does that already, in
   combination with the nullification of `scontext->ddev'.

b) Indicate whether a command was sent previously. If the semaphore
   is found unused in the threaded ISR, an error is reported.
   This case can be handled much nicer by checking whether `skb_resp'
   is present in the context. For this, nullify the `skb_resp' pointer
   in the callback context.
