From 20cf2aed89ac6d78a0122e31c875228e15247194 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Bartosz Golaszewski bartosz.golaszewski@oss.qualcomm.com Date: Tue, 6 Jan 2026 10:00:11 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] gpio: rockchip: mark the GPIO controller as sleeping
The GPIO controller is configured as non-sleeping but it uses generic pinctrl helpers which use a mutex for synchronization.
This can cause the following lockdep splat with shared GPIOs enabled on boards which have multiple devices using the same GPIO:
