/* Notes on locking:
*
* backlight_device->ops_lock is an internal backlight lock protecting the
* ops pointer and no code outside the core should need to touch it.
*
* Access to update_status() is serialised by the update_lock mutex since
* most drivers seem to need this and historically get it wrong.
*
* Most drivers don't need locking on their get_brightness() method.
* If yours does, you need to implement it in the driver. You can use the
* update_lock mutex if appropriate.
*
* Any other use of the locks below is probably wrong.
