[media] double mutex lock in drivers/media/radio/si470x/radio-si470x-
KERNEL_VERSION: 2.6.37
common.c in function ssize_t si470x_fops_read.
1. First mutex_lock on &radio->lock in line 441
2. Second in line 462
I think that mutex in line 462 is not needed.
433static ssize_t si470x_fops_read(struct file *file, char __user *buf,
434 size_t count, loff_t *ppos)

441 mutex_lock(&radio->lock);
442 if ((radio->registers[SYSCONFIG1] & SYSCONFIG1_RDS) == 0)
443 si470x_rds_on(radio);

445 /* block if no new data available */
446 while (radio->wr_index == radio->rd_index) {
447 if (file->f_flags & O_NONBLOCK) {
448 retval = -EWOULDBLOCK;
449 goto done;
450 }
451 if (wait_event_interruptible(radio->read_queue,
452 radio->wr_index != radio->rd_index) < 0) {
453 retval = -EINTR;
454 goto done;
455 }

459 count /= 3;

462 mutex_lock(&radio->lock);

Remove second mutex.
