il3945_store_measurement() calls il3945_get_measurement() which internally calls il_send_cmd_sync() without holding il->mutex. However, il_send_cmd_sync() has lockdep_assert_held(&il->mutex) indicating that callers must hold this lock. Other sysfs store functions in the same file properly acquire the mutex: - il3945_store_flags() acquires mutex at 3945-mac.c:3110 - il3945_store_filter_flags() acquires mutex at 3945-mac.c:3144 Add mutex_lock()/mutex_unlock() around the il3945_get_measurement() call in the sysfs store function to fix the missing lock protection.
