From a2b7b01c072435b7832ab392167545a1b38cabc3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Len Brown Date: Wed, 28 Jan 2009 12:47:15 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] ACPI: remove locking from PM1x_STS register reads PM1a_STS and PM1b_STS are twins that get OR'd together on reads, and all writes are repeated to both. The fields in PM1x_STS are single bits only, there are no multi-bit fields. So it is not necessary to lock PM1x_STS reads against writes because it is impossible to read an intermediate value of a single bit. It will either be 0 or 1, even if a write is in progress during the read. Reads are asynchronous to writes no matter if a lock is used or not.
