Hi,

actually, not all notify-related calls need locking. It just so happens that
input drivers must protect their key sequence, other WMI drivers might not need
to use any locking at all.

I would prefer if the WMI driver does the locking, so it can be optimized for
each WMI driver.

Thanks,
Armin Wolf
