Kuppuswamy Sathyanarayanan 6687aeb9cd platform/x86: intel_pmc_ipc: Use spin_lock to protect GCR updates
Currently, update_no_reboot_bit() function implemented in this driver
uses mutex_lock() to protect its register updates. But this function is
called with in atomic context in iTCO_wdt_start() and iTCO_wdt_stop()
functions in iTCO_wdt.c driver, which in turn causes "sleeping into
atomic context" issue. This patch fixes this issue by replacing the
mutex_lock() with spin_lock() to protect the GCR read/write/update APIs.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
