[PATCH] hwmon: pmbus: protect read-modify-write with lock

[Adamski, Krzysztof (Nokia - PL/Wroclaw)]

The operation done in the pmbus_update_fan() function is a
read-modify-write operation but it lacks any kind of lock protection
which may cause problems if run more than once simultaneously. This
patch uses an existing update_lock mutex to fix this problem.

Please use get_maintainer to find the people responsible for this file.
It is not my realm.

Despite the above, have you tested the code? This likely should be
mutex_unlock?

Sorry for that, I made a mistake and used wrong command to generate the
patch and send it to the wrong list of people. You can ignore this
patchset, it was resent to the proper mailing list instead.
