[PATCH v2 2/2] gpio: tegra: Use raw_spinlock

From: Dmitry Osipenko
Date: Wed Nov 04 2020 - 12:04:54 EST


Use raw_spinlock in order to fix spurious messages about invalid context
when spinlock debugging is enabled. This happens because there is a legit
nested raw_spinlock->spinlock locking usage within IRQ-related code. IRQ
core uses raw spinlock and then Tegra GPIO driver uses a nested spinlock.
The debug code can't recognize and handle this case, hence we need to use
raw spinlock in the GPIO driver.

Changelog:

v2: - Only lvl_lock is converted to raw_spinlock. The dbc_lock doesn't
relate to IRQ and doesn't need the conversion.

- Improved commit message by clarifying that IRQ core uses raw
spinlock.

- Added clarifying comment to the code for the lvl_lock.
