-Subject: [PATCH] regulator/gpio: Allow nonexclusive GPIO access
-
-commit b0ce7b29bfcd090ddba476f45a75ec0a797b048a upstream.
-
-[ This is a partial cherry-pick, omitting the regulator
-change which isn't required ]
-
-This allows nonexclusive (simultaneous) access to a single
-GPIO line for the fixed regulator enable line. This happens
-when several regulators use the same GPIO for enabling and
-disabling a regulator, and all need a handle on their GPIO
-descriptor.
-
-This solution with a special flag is not entirely elegant
-and should ideally be replaced by something more careful as
-this makes it possible for several consumers to
-enable/disable the same GPIO line to the left and right
-without any consistency. The current use inside the regulator
-core should however be fine as it takes special care to
-handle this.
-
-For the state of the GPIO backend, this is still the
-lesser evil compared to going back to global GPIO
-numbers.
