Subject: [PATCH V2] ARM: OMAP: counter: add locking to read_persistent_clock
Date: Wed, 12 Sep 2012 12:44:41 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1347434081-11469-1-git-send-email-r.sricharan@ti.com> (raw)

From: Colin Cross <ccross@android.com>

read_persistent_clock uses a global variable, use a spinlock to
ensure non-atomic updates to the variable don't overlap and cause
time to move backwards.
