ARM: PL08x: move callback outside spinlock'd region
Calling the callback handler with spinlocks in the tasklet held leads to deadlock when dmaengine functions are called: BUG: spinlock lockup on CPU#0, sh/417, c1870a08 Backtrace: ... [<c017b408>] (do_raw_spin_lock+0x0/0x154) from [<c02c4b98>] (_raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x54/0x60) [<c02c4b44>] (_raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x0/0x60) from [<c01f5828>] (pl08x_prep_channel_resources+0x718/0x8b4) [<c01f5110>] (pl08x_prep_channel_resources+0x0/0x8b4) from [<c01f5bb4>] (pl08x_prep_slave_sg+0x120/0x19c) [<c01f5a94>] (pl08x_prep_slave_sg+0x0/0x19c) from [<c01be7a0>] (pl011_dma_tx_refill+0x164/0x224) [<c01be63c>] (pl011_dma_tx_refill+0x0/0x224) from [<c01bf1c8>] (pl011_dma_tx_callback+0x7c/0xc4) [<c01bf14c>] (pl011_dma_tx_callback+0x0/0xc4) from [<c01f4d34>] (pl08x_tasklet+0x60/0x368) [<c01f4cd4>] (pl08x_tasklet+0x0/0x368) from [<c004d978>] (tasklet_action+0xa0/0x100) Dan quoted the documentation: > 2/ Completion callback routines cannot submit new operations.  This >    results in recursion in the synchronous case and spin_locks being >    acquired twice in the asynchronous case. but then followed up to say: > I should clarify, this is the async_memcpy() api requirement which is > not used outside of md/raid5. DMA drivers can and do allow new > submissions from callbacks, and the ones that do so properly move the > callback outside of the driver lock. So let's fix it by moving the callback out of the spinlocked region.
