Subject: [PATCH] mmc: rtsx: fix possible circular locking dependency
Date: Wed, 16 Apr 2014 09:38:44 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1397612325-4968-1-git-send-email-micky_ching@realsil.com.cn> (raw)
From: Micky Ching <micky_ching@realsil.com.cn>
To avoid dead lock, we need make sure host->lock is always acquire
before pcr->lock. But in irq handler, we acquired pcr->lock in rtsx mfd
driver, and sd_isr_done_transfer() is called during pcr->lock already
acquired. Since in sd_isr_done_transfer() the only work we do is schdule
tasklet, the cmd_tasklet and data_tasklet never conflict, so it is safe
to remove spin_lock() here.
