Subject: Re: [PATCH] ledtrig-cpu: use spin_lock to replace mutex lock
So sorry about the delay, since I'm moving and don't have network
connection for several weeks. Right now have to use web interface of
GMAIL to send out this patch, if it was corrupted by GMAIL, please use
the attached patch file. Sorry about this.
Thanks,
-Bryan
