At this point, the lock is largely pointless, isn't it?

Seems like you might as well use local_irq_save/restore.

Yeah.


[PATCH] qd65xx: remove pointless qd_{read,write}_reg() (take 2)

These functions are atomic so locking is pointless (noticed by Sergei).

v2:
We can now just use local_irq_save/restore() in qd_testreg() (noticed by Jeff).
