[PATCH] irqchip/gic: Atomically update affinity

From: Marc Zyngier
Date: Sun Jun 21 2020 - 10:26:03 EST


The GIC driver uses a RMW sequence to update the affinity, and
relies on the gic_lock_irqsave/gic_unlock_irqrestore sequences
to update it atomically.

But these sequences only expand into anything meaningful if
the BL_SWITCHER option is selected, which almost never happens.

It also turns out that using a RMW and locks is just as silly,
as the GIC distributor supports byte accesses for the GICD_TARGETRn
registers, which when used make the update atomic by definition.

Drop the terminally broken code and replace it by a byte write.

Fixes: 04c8b0f82c7d ("irqchip/gic: Make locking a BL_SWITCHER only feature")
