From 3ff74be5c1a72df6d304dcb453f68e3c3bea3bdd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johan Hovold Date: Mon, 4 May 2015 17:10:30 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] gpio: sysfs: reduce gpiochip-export locking scope Reduce scope of sysfs_lock protection during chip export and unexport, which is only needed to prevent gpiod (re-)exports during chip removal.
