[PATCH] eeprom: at24: don't use the default regmap locking

From: Bartosz Golaszewski
Date: Sun Dec 03 2017 - 16:48:02 EST


We need to always wait for the last write to complete and we want the
regmap to be protected from concurrent access during that wait. That
makes using the regmap's default locking impossible and we're
protecting it with an external mutex.

Set an empty function as the callback for regmap's lock and unlock
routines so that it doesn't allocate any internal resources for
unnecessary locking.

This is a temporary solution - I'm working on a patch extending the
regmap framework with locking policy options, which will allow users
to manually lock & unlock regmaps if needed or disable locking at all.
