3.5.7u1 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Haojian Zhuang <[email protected]> commit 7ae9d71e8df27a3ab60a05ae3add08728debc09c upstream. Mutex is locked duplicatly by pinconf_groups_show() and pin_config_group_get(). It results dead lock. So avoid to lock mutex in pinconf_groups_show().
