The implementation in pinctrl_register_one_pin() ensures pindesc->name is always
not NULL before insert the pindesc to radix tree.
If the desc return from pin_desc_get is not NULL, desc->name is always not NULL.

This one is missed in commit 42fed7ba "pinctrl: move subsystem mutex to

Good point. Patch applied.

I think this was never there.

What is this protecting against?

I'm not sure I follow this so better ask.

I think it was protected by the global pinctrl_mutex in v3.9, you can check the
source code here:
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git/tree/drivers/pinctrl/core.c?id=refs/tags/v3.9.11

However, commit 42fed7ba44 "pinctrl: move subsystem mutex to
pinctrl_dev struct" then
adds mutex_lock(&pinctrldev_list_mutex); but forgot to add
mutex_lock(&pctldev->mutex);
here although it adds mutex_lock(&pctldev->mutex) in pinctrl_free_gpio().
The mutex_lock(&pinctrldev_list_mutex) is then moved into
pinctrl_get_device_gpio_range()
and pinctrl_ready_for_gpio_range() by commit 44d5f7b "pinctrl: sink
pinctrldev_list_mutex".

I think this fixes the race between pin_free() and pin_request() calls.
(Well, I don't have a h/w to test at this moment.)
It protects accessing the members of pctldev->desc.
(e.g. update desc->mux_usecount, desc->gpio_owner, desc->mux_owner, etc)
Current code grabs pctldev->mutex before calling pinmux_free_gpio(),
but did not grab the mutex while calling pinmux_request_gpio().

Regards,
Axel

OK you won me over, patch applied!

I also edited in some of the above text into the commit.
