    i2c-core: Fix for lockdep validator · 390946b1
    Jean Delvare 提交于
    If kernel is compiled with CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING the
    validator raises an error when a multiplexer is removed
    via sysfs and sub-clients are connected to it. This is a
    false positive.
    Documentation/lockdep-design.txt recommends to handle this
    via calls to mutex_lock_nested().
    
    Based on an earlier fix from Michael Lawnick.
    
    Note that the extra code resolves to nothing unless
    CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC=y.
