Muxed (mem) regions will wait in request_mem_region_muxed() if the region is busy (in use by another consumer) during the call. In order to wake-up possibly waiting other consumers of the region, it must be released by a release_mem_region() call, which will actually wake up any waiters. release_mem_region() also frees the resource created by request_mem_region_muxed(), avoiding the need for the unmatched kfree().

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.
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.
