[PATCH 05/11] USB: serial: io_edgeport: serialise MCR accesses
From: Johan Hovold
Date: Wed Oct 21 2026 - 10:25:30 EST
Add a mutex to serialise modem control register updates to prevent
concurrent tasks from interfering with each other.
Note that the register updates are currently asynchronous so a task may
read back a value which has not yet taken effect.
Fixes: 1da177e4c3f4 ("Linux-2.6.12-rc2")
