6.6-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@xxxxxxxxx> commit 108ffd12be24ba1d74b3314df8db32a0a6d55ba5 upstream. The lockdep assertion in thermal_zone_trip_id() triggers when the trip point sysfs attribute of a thermal instance is read, because there is no thermal zone locking in that code path. This is not verly useful, though, because there is no mechanism by which the location of the trips[] table in a thermal zone or its size can change after binding cooling devices to the trips in that thermal zone and before those cooling devices are unbound from them. Thus it is not in fact necessary to hold the thermal zone lock when thermal_zone_trip_id() is called from trip_point_show() and so the lockdep asserion in the former is invalid. Accordingly, drop that lockdep assertion. Fixes: 2c7b4bfadef0 ("thermal: core: Store trip pointer in struct thermal_instance") Signed-off-by: Rafael J.
