[PATCH] i2c/omap: drop the lock hard irq context

From: Grygorii Strashko
Date: Mon Apr 04 2016 - 09:56:10 EST


From: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

The lock is taken while reading two registers. On RT the first lock is
taken in hard irq where it might sleep and in the threaded irq.
The threaded irq runs in oneshot mode so the hard irq does not run until
the thread the completes so there is no reason to grab the lock.
