commit 2787710f73fcce4a9bdab540aaf1aef778a27462 upstream.
I'm was on the receiving end of a lockdep splat from this driver and after scratching my head I couldn't be entirely sure it was a false positive given we would also have to think about whether the regulator locking is safe (since the notifier is called whilst holding regulator locks which are also needed for regulator_is_enabled() ).
Regardless of whether it is a real bug or not, the mutex isn't needed. We can use reference counting tricks instead to avoid races with the notifier calls.
The observed splat follows:
------------------------------------------------------ kworker/u16:3/127 is trying to acquire lock: ffff00008021fb20 (&ihid_goodix->regulator_mutex){+.+.}-{4:4}, at: ihid_goodix_vdd_notify+0x30/0x94
but task is already holding lock: ffff0000835c60c0 (&(&rdev->notifier)->rwsem){++++}-{4:4}, at: blocking_notifier_call_chain+0x30/0x70
which lock already depends on the new lock.
the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is:
