[PATCH AUTOSEL 5.4 116/330] ALSA: hda: Clear RIRB status before reading WP

From: Sasha Levin
Date: Thu Sep 17 2020 - 23:08:15 EST


From: Mohan Kumar <mkumard@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 6d011d5057ff88ee556c000ac6fe0be23bdfcd72 ]

RIRB interrupt status getting cleared after the write pointer is read
causes a race condition, where last response(s) into RIRB may remain
unserviced by IRQ, eventually causing azx_rirb_get_response to fall
back to polling mode. Clearing the RIRB interrupt status ahead of
write pointer access ensures that this condition is avoided.
