Hans de Goede 3c670dba86 ACPI / PMIC: xpower: Block P-Unit I2C access during read-modify-write
intel_xpower_pmic_update_power() does a read-modify-write of the output
control register. The i2c-designware code blocks the P-Unit I2C access
during the read and write by taking the P-Unit's PMIC bus semaphore.
But between the read and the write that semaphore is released and the
P-Unit could make changes to the register which we then end up overwriting.

This commit makes intel_xpower_pmic_update_power() take the semaphore
itself so that it is held over the entire read-modify-write, avoiding this
race.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
