[PATCH 1/4] firewire: core: reduce critical section duration in pre-processing of isoc resource management in cdev
From: Takashi Sakamoto
Date: Fri May 01 2026 - 09:58:36 EST
It is preferable for the critical section to be as small as possible.
Current implementation of iso_resource_auto_work() function uses a
spinlock to control concurrent access to members of fw_card, fw_device,
iso_resource_auto structures, however the locking duration could be
reduced.
This commit refactors to shorten that duration.
