Subject: [PATCH] remoteproc: sysfs: fix race while updating recovery flag
Date:   Sun, 29 Jan 2023 14:51:06 -0800

When multiple clients try to update the recovery flag, it is
possible that, race condition would lead to undesired results
as updates to recovery flag isn't protected by any mechanism
today. To avoid such issues, take remoteproc mutex lock before
updating recovery flag and release the lock once done.
