This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled leds: turris-omnia: Drop unnecessary mutex locking to the 6.1-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: leds-turris-omnia-drop-unnecessary-mutex-locking.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.1 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 426d9c5cd7aad9c8918a47aea1f5be15bb7ceecc Author: Marek Behún <kabel@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed Aug 2 18:07:43 2023 +0200 leds: turris-omnia: Drop unnecessary mutex locking [ Upstream commit 760b6b7925bf09491aafa4727eef74fc6bf738b0 ] Do not lock driver mutex in the global LED panel brightness sysfs accessors brightness_show() and brightness_store(). The mutex locking is unnecessary here. The I2C transfers are guarded by I2C core locking mechanism, and the LED commands itself do not interfere with other commands.
