From: Fabio Estevam <fabio.estevam@xxxxxxx> An interrupt may occur right after devm_request_irq() is called and prior to the spinlock initialization, leading to a kernel oops, as the interrupt handler uses the spinlock. In order to prevent this problem, move the spinlock initialization prior to requesting the interrupts.
