No, you can't move the check. If you move it, the HPD state could change between the check and the request_irq, and we'd miss it. > spin_lock_irqsave() in hdmi_check_hpd_state() to some mutex (we don't > want irqs disabled so long as it takes for phy to power on/off). Yes, I guess a mutex is better. Tomi
