[PATCH] i2c: tegra: Don't mark devices with pins as IRQ safe
From: Mikko Perttunen
Date: Sun Feb 01 2026 - 23:43:14 EST
I2C devices with associated pinctrl states (DPAUX I2C controllers)
will change pinctrl state during runtime PM. This requires taking
a mutex, so these devices cannot be marked as IRQ safe.
Discovered through lockdep.
