Re: [PATCH] pinctrl: meson: amlogic-a4: mark the GPIO controller as sleeping

Hi Bartosz,
    Could you explain the reproduction method for this problem ?

The GPIO controller is configured as non-sleeping but it uses generic
pinctrl helpers which use a mutex for synchronization. This will cause
lockdep splats when used together with shared GPIOs going through the
GPIO shared proxy driver.

Fixes: 6e9be3abb78c ("pinctrl: Add driver support for Amlogic SoCs")
