[PATCH v4] arm_mpam: Use an atomic counter to schedule mpam_enable_once()
From: Ping Li
Date: Tue Sep 15 2026 - 08:29:52 EST
mpam_discovery_cpu_online() scheduled mpam_enable() after each MSC
probe, and mpam_enable() walked the whole MSC list taking each probe
lock in turn to check if all the MSCs had been probed.
Count the MSCs that have had their hardware probed with
mpam_num_msc_probed, and schedule mpam_enable_once() directly when the
count reaches fw_num_msc, the number of MSCs reported by firmware.
MSCs that were already probed no longer cause work to be scheduled.

Changes in v4:
- Use guard(mutex) for the probe lock and continue/break to flatten
the nesting, per review feedback.
- Compare the probed count against fw_num_msc instead of
mpam_num_msc, which is more robust against unbind/bind incrementing
mpam_num_msc past fw_num_msc.
- Remove the stale comment for the removed mpam_enable() declaration.
