Hi all
Do we have hardware mutex common framework available in kernel? I can't find in drivers/, but, I found there is a hardware spinlock framework under drivers/hwspinlock.
I believe the spinlock and mutex should have different framework. Please correct me if wrong.
I would like to introduce a hardware mutex common framework in kernel if it is not exist yet. What is the procedure for this? Or I can just directly submit the patch to kernel mailing list?
Thanks.
