From eaa4d02fbaf49e57f8a18f68e736e34c514030a2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Kim, Milo" Date: Mon, 17 Dec 2012 16:00:45 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] drivers/video/backlight/lp855x_bl.c: remove unnecessary mutex code The mutex for accessing lp855x registers is used in case of the user-space interaction. When the brightness is changed via sysfs, the mutex is required. But the backlight class device already provides it. Thus, the lp855x mutex is unnecessary.
