Hi Anand!
Yeah, I am hitting this as well. Annoying. However your description is
inaccurate. Double lock of mutex does not cause warnings of sleeping or
locking in atomic context (if you build with debug sleep atomic you will
see different warning). More over you are partially reverting the commit
d1cd21427747 ("pwm: Set enable state properly on failed call to enable")
without proper explanation:
1. why this locking is inappropriate;
2. why it is safe to remove the mutex_lock().
Please find the real problem, fix the real problem and throughly explain
the real issue.
I was suspecting some weird changes in timers. For !irqsafe timer I
think it is safe to use mutexes... but apparently not. Maybe a work
should be scheduled from function called by timer?
