   Yes, this PR appears to meet the basic NuttX requirements, although it's 
minimally documented.  It provides context by referencing a previous commit, 
explaining the overall goal (removing `spin_lock_irqsave(NULL)`), and 
indicating where the changes are. However, more detail would be beneficial.
   
   Here's how it could be improved:
   
   **Summary:**
   
   * Be more explicit about *what* this PR changes within `cxd56_rtc.c`. Does 
it introduce a new lock?  Replace an existing lock?  What code paths are 
affected?
   * Briefly explain *how* the new lock mechanism works (if applicable). Is it 
a mutex? Semaphore?  What are the protected resources?
   * The commit message mentions a reason, but the PR should explicitly state 
the problem `spin_lock_irqsave(NULL)` was causing.
   
   **Impact:**
   
   *  "RELEASE" is not sufficient.  Address each point specifically, even if 
the answer is "NO".  If there's a potential for user impact, backward 
compatibility issues, etc.,  explain why "RELEASE" is the correct assessment.  
This justifies the impact assessment and prevents misunderstandings.
   
   **Testing:**
   
   * "CI" is insufficient. While CI is important, local testing is still 
required.  Specify the host and target environments where testing was performed.
   * Provide *specific* test cases and their expected outcomes before and after 
the change, not just "CI."  Ideally, there would be some evidence in the logs 
showing the lock in action and demonstrating the absence of the previous issue. 
 If logs are lengthy, summarize the relevant portions.
   
   
   
   Even though it references a prior commit, this PR should be self-contained 
and understandable without requiring the reviewer to hunt down other 
information.  Greater detail and explicit testing results would strengthen the 
PR significantly.
