[PATCH 03/11] firmware: qcom-scm: atomically assign and read the global __scm pointer

From: Bartosz Golaszewski
Date: Mon Aug 28 2023 - 15:28:35 EST


Checking for the availability of SCM bridge can happen from any context.
It's only by chance that we haven't run into concurrency issues but with
the upcoming SHM Bridge driver that will be initiated at the same
initcall level, we need to assure the assignment and readback of the
__scm pointer is atomic.
