Baolin Wang 3a40cfe8ba leds: trigger: Fix sleeping function called from invalid context
We will meet below issue due to mutex_lock() is called in interrupt context.
The mutex lock is used to protect the pattern trigger data, but before changing
new pattern trigger data (pattern values or repeat value) by users, we always
cancel the timer firstly to clear previous patterns' performance. That means
there is no race in pattern_trig_timer_function(), so we can drop the mutex
lock in pattern_trig_timer_function() to avoid this issue.

Moreover we can move the timer cancelling into mutex protection, since there
is no deadlock risk if we remove the mutex lock in pattern_trig_timer_function().

BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/locking/mutex.c:254

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
