[PATCH] backlight: grab ops_lock before testing bd->ops

From: Uwe Kleine-KÃnig
Date: Mon Nov 22 2010 - 04:43:20 EST


According to the comment describing ops_lock in the definition of
struct backlight_device and when comparing with other functions in
backlight.c the mutex must be hold when checking ops to be non-NULL.
