This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled

    iio: light: opt3001: fix mutex unlock race

to my staging git tree which can be found at
    git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/staging.git
in the staging-linus branch.

The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree
(usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.)

The patch will hopefully also be merged in Linus's tree for the
next -rc kernel release.

If you have any questions about this process, please let me know.

Subject: iio: light: opt3001: fix mutex unlock race

When an end-of-conversion interrupt is received after performing a
single-shot reading of the light sensor, the driver was waking up the
result ready queue before checking opt->ok_to_ignore_lock to determine
if it should unlock the mutex. The problem occurred in the case where
the other thread woke up and changed the value of opt->ok_to_ignore_lock
to false prior to the interrupt thread performing its read of the
variable. In this case, the mutex would be unlocked twice.
