This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled

iio: addac: stx104: Fix race condition when converting

to my char-misc git tree which can be found at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/char-misc.git in the char-misc-testing branch.

The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree (usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.)

The patch will be merged to the char-misc-next branch sometime soon, after it passes testing, and the merge window is open.

If you have any questions about this process, please let me know.

From 4f9b80aefb9e2f542a49d9ec087cf5919730e1dd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: William Breathitt Gray william.gray@linaro.org Date: Thu, 6 Apr 2023 10:40:11 -0400 Subject: iio: addac: stx104: Fix race condition when converting analog-to-digital

The ADC conversion procedure requires several device I/O operations performed in a particular sequence. If stx104_read_raw() is called concurrently, the ADC conversion procedure could be clobbered. Prevent such a race condition by utilizing a mutex.
