Subject: [PATCH] avr32: fix deadlock when reading clock list in debugfs
Date: Sun, 6 Mar 2011 20:42:39 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110306194239.GA9342@siv.localdomain> (raw)

When writing out /sys/kernel/debug/at32ap_clk, clock list lock is being
held while clk_get() is called. clk_get() attempts to take the same
lock, which results in deadlock. Introduce and call lock free version,
__clk_get(), instead.
