Subject: [PATCH v2] gpio: gpio-grgpio: call request_irq after incrementing the reference count
Date: Wed, 1 Oct 2025 22:57:27 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251002055727.1488237-1-alex.t.tran@gmail.com> (raw)
Remove extraneous dropping of the lock just to call 'request_irq'
and locking again afterwards. Increment reference count
before calling 'request_irq'. Rollback reference count if
'request_irq' fails.
Suggested-by: Bartosz Golaszewski <bartosz.golaszewski@linaro.org>

Changes in v2:
- converted refcnt to type atomic_t
- utilize atomic types API for refcnt
