This description is not very clear English. I understand it is not your
native language. Let me try to help.
"""
The use of spin_lock_irqsave() is a stronger locking mechanism than is
required throughout the driver. The minimum locking required should be
used instead.
Change all instances of spin_lock_irqsave() to spin_lock_bh(). All
manipulation of protected fields is done using tasklet context or
weaker, which makes spin_lock_bh() the correct choice.
