Subject: [PATCH 4.9 82/86] misc: atmel-ssc: lock with mutex instead of spinlock

From: Michał Mirosław <mirq-linux@...e.qmqm.pl>

commit b037d60a3b1d1227609fd858fa34321f41829911 upstream.

Uninterruptible context is not needed in the driver and causes lockdep
warning because of mutex taken in of_alias_get_id(). Convert the lock to
mutex to avoid the issue.

Cc: stable@...r.kernel.org
Fixes: 099343c64e16 ("ARM: at91: atmel-ssc: add device tree support")
