[PATCH v3 5/6] platform/mellanox: mlxbf-tmfifo: implement synchronize_cbs()

From: Karl Mehltretter

Date: Tue Sep 08 2026 - 01:46:18 EST


TmFIFO invokes virtqueue callbacks from its FIFO work item under
spin_lock_irqsave(). The core's synchronize_rcu() fallback already
covers those sections.

Implement synchronize_cbs() using the existing per-direction locks
instead of waiting for an RCU grace period. fifo->spin_lock[0] covers
the transmit callbacks, including the callback from the timeout
handler. fifo->spin_lock[1] covers the receive callbacks. Take and
release each lock in turn to synchronize with callbacks running
under that lock.
