Subject: [PATCH v3 3/3] counter: 104-quad-8: Add lock guards for filter clock prescaler
Date: Thu, 12 Mar 2020 16:55:52 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200312112552.GA32509@syed> (raw)

Add lock protection from race conditions in the 104-quad-8 counter
driver for filter clock prescaler related changes. There is no IRQ
handling so used spin_lock calls for protection.

Fixes: 9b74dddf79be ("counter: 104-quad-8: Support Filter Clock
Prescaler")

Signed-off-by: Syed Nayyar Waris <syednwaris@gmail.com>

Split the patch from generic interface and differential encoder cable
status changes. Also, include more code statements for protection using
spin_lock calls and remove protection from few code statements which are
unnecessary.
