??? Why? I think user must use it after hwspin_lock_register have retured
sucess.
Once the spinlocks are registered anyone can request and acquire these.
The tests could then interfere with any users of the hwspinlock layer,
or simply fail (because the spinlocks might already be acquired).

Thanks,
Ido.
