We must not call pinctrl_gpio_can_use_line() with the gpio_lock taken
as it takes a mutex internally. Let's move the call before taking the
spinlock and store the return value.
This isn't perfect - there's a moment between calling
pinctrl_gpio_can_use_line() and taking the spinlock where the situation
can change but it isn't a regression either: previously this part wasn't
protected at all and it only affects the information user-space is
seeing.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
