  15 /* Notes on locking:
  16  *
  17  * backlight_device->ops_lock is an internal backlight lock protecting the
  18  * ops pointer and no code outside the core should need to touch it.
  19  *
  20  * Access to update_status() is serialised by the update_lock mutex since
  21  * most drivers seem to need this and historically get it wrong.
  22  *
  23  * Most drivers don't need locking on their get_brightness() method.
  24  * If yours does, you need to implement it in the driver. You can use the
  25  * update_lock mutex if appropriate.
  26  *
  27  * Any other use of the locks below is probably wrong.
