Hmm, can't say I'm bursting with joy, but at least this looks as clean
as it can get, given the circumstances.
Let me explain my misgivings:
- the PMU callback (not your fault, I know) is questionable to me.
This seems to be just the sort of thing that ought to be decided
in user space. Besides, I think that the logic it implements is
actually incorrect in GTA02. (Still need to prove that, though.)
- callbacks from one driver into another one always bear a risk of
causing nasty problems when more locking gets added for some
reason.
I know that there are much worse offenders, e.g., I2C, but still.
