16 /* Notes on locking:
18 * lcd_device->ops_lock is an internal backlight lock protecting the ops
19 * field and no code outside the core should need to touch it.
21 * Access to set_power() is serialised by the update_lock mutex since
22 * most drivers seem to need this and historically get it wrong.
24 * Most drivers don't need locking on their get_power() method.
25 * If yours does, you need to implement it in the driver. You can use the
26 * update_lock mutex if appropriate.
28 * Any other use of the locks below is probably wrong.
