[PATCH 1/2] Input: i8042 - Prevent intermixing i8042 commands

From: Raul E Rangel
Date: Thu Aug 27 2020 - 15:52:50 EST


The i8042_mutex must be held by writers of the AUX and KBD ports, as
well as users of i8042_command. There were a lot of users of
i8042_command that were not calling i8042_lock_chip/i8042_unlock_chip.
This resulted in i8042_commands being issues in between PS/2
transactions.

This change moves the mutex lock into i8042_command and removes the
burden of locking the mutex from the callers.

It is expected that the i8042_mutex is locked before calling
i8042_aux_write or i8042_kbd_write. This is currently done by the PS/2
layer via ps2_begin_command and ps2_end_command. Other modules
(serio_raw) do not currently lock the mutex, so there is still a
possibility for intermixed commands.
