[PATCH 3.16 333/366] ALSA: timer: Call notifier in the same spinlock

From: Ben Hutchings
Date: Sun Oct 14 2018 - 11:56:30 EST


3.16.60-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@xxxxxxx>

commit f65e0d299807d8a11812845c972493c3f9a18e10 upstream.

snd_timer_notify1() is called outside the spinlock and it retakes the
lock after the unlock. This is rather racy, and it's safer to move
snd_timer_notify() call inside the main spinlock.

The patch also contains a slight refactoring / cleanup of the code.
Now all start/stop/continue/pause look more symmetric and a bit better
readable.

[bwh: Backported to 3.16:
- Fix up another use of "event" in _snd_timer_stop()
- Adjust context]
