Subject: [patch 101/176] jz4740-battery: Protect against concurrent battery readings

2.6.36-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Lars-Peter Clausen <lars@...afoo.de>

commit 8ec98fe0b4ffdedce4c1caa9fb3d550f52ad1c6b upstream.

We can not handle more then one ADC request at a time to the battery.
The patch adds a mutex around the ADC read code to ensure this.
