If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From 90c43ec6997a892448f1f86180a515f59cafd8a3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Vignesh R <vigneshr@xxxxxx> Date: Wed, 17 Aug 2016 17:43:00 +0530 Subject: iio: adc: ti_am335x_adc: Protect FIFO1 from concurrent access From: Vignesh R <vigneshr@xxxxxx> commit 90c43ec6997a892448f1f86180a515f59cafd8a3 upstream. It is possible that two or more ADC channels can be simultaneously requested for raw samples, in which case there can be race in access to FIFO data resulting in loss of samples. If am335x_tsc_se_set_once() is called again from tiadc_read_raw(), when ADC is still acquired to sample one of the channels, the second process might be put into uninterruptible sleep state. Fix these issues, by protecting FIFO access and channel configurations with a mutex. Since tiadc_read_raw() might take anywhere between few microseconds to few milliseconds to finish execution (depending on averaging and delay values supplied via DT), its better to use mutex instead of spinlock.
