From 058502eb38a0f687e5af37209488d03656f87ffe Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Russell King Date: Wed, 18 Jan 2012 12:52:59 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] FB: sa1100: make GPIO configuration setting safe The sa1100fb driver needs to set the GPIO direction and alternate function register according to the panel that we're driving. We've done this in the driver by read-modify-writing the register, which may cause problems with races. Fix this with a minimal change.
