[PATCH 5.0 50/93] PM / Domains: Avoid a potential deadlock

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Thu Apr 18 2019 - 14:17:35 EST


[ Upstream commit 2071ac985d37efe496782c34318dbead93beb02f ]

Lockdep warns that prepare_lock and genpd->mlock can cause a deadlock
the deadlock scenario is like following:
First thread is probing cs2000
cs2000_probe()
clk_register()
__clk_core_init()
clk_prepare_lock() ----> acquires prepare_lock
cs2000_recalc_rate()
i2c_smbus_read_byte_data()
rcar_i2c_master_xfer()
dma_request_chan()
rcar_dmac_of_xlate()
rcar_dmac_alloc_chan_resources()
pm_runtime_get_sync()
__pm_runtime_resume()
rpm_resume()
rpm_callback()
genpd_runtime_resume() ----> acquires genpd->mlock

Second thread is attaching any device to the same PM domain
genpd_add_device()
genpd_lock() ----> acquires genpd->mlock
cpg_mssr_attach_dev()
of_clk_get_from_provider()
__of_clk_get_from_provider()
__clk_create_clk()
clk_prepare_lock() ----> acquires prepare_lock

Since currently no PM provider access genpd's critical section
in .attach_dev, and .detach_dev callbacks, so there is no need to protect
these two callbacks with genpd->mlock.
This patch avoids a potential deadlock by moving out .attach_dev and .detach_dev
from genpd->mlock, so that genpd->mlock won't be held when prepare_lock is acquired
in .attach_dev and .detach_dev
