spin_lock_irqsave() seems a bit overkill, indeed. But, I'm not sure
about mutex since vibra_spi_playback() is called by input layer
with spinlock held and irqs off so it cannot sleep in mutex_lock().

As said above, this is called with spinlock held and irqs off.

You're right. It is being passed on to the device.

The driver could, of course, calculate the bit streams with help of
board specific functions. It was just thought that tuning vibration
device would be a lot easier, if we could just modify the bit streams
provided by user space application. In fact, the bit stream basically
consists of series of PWM pulses that are fed to the vibra.

Perhaps, calculating the waveforms in the driver at probe time would
be the most natural choice :\

Ok. I'll drop the whole sysfs part altogether.

I'll do that.

I'll change.

I'll change this as well.
