[ Upstream commitf173747fff] Holding the spin-lock for all of the code in meson_pwm_apply() can result in a "BUG: scheduling while atomic". This can happen because clk_get_rate() (which is called from meson_pwm_calc()) may sleep. Only hold the spin-lock when modifying registers to solve this. The reason why we need a spin-lock in the driver is because the REG_MISC_AB register is shared between the two channels provided by one PWM controller. The only functions where REG_MISC_AB is modified are meson_pwm_enable() and meson_pwm_disable() so the register reads/writes in there need to be protected by the spin-lock. The original code also used the spin-lock to protect the values in struct meson_pwm_channel. This could be necessary if two consumers can use the same PWM channel. However, PWM core doesn't allow this so we don't need to protect the values in struct meson_pwm_channel with a lock.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
