Hi Eduardo,

Serialized calls to tz.ops in user facing
sysfs handler mode_show()  and mode_store().
This seems to be causing a deadlock at boot time during the ending 
stages of boot:

It took a while to git bisect on linux-next.

Seems like you introduced new locking at the sysfs layer which causes 
this deadlock as the underlying code again tries to acquire the same 
tz->lock.

Keerthy
