Huh... Reproduced. This is another reincarnation of the prepare_mutex in 
clock's
core related deadlock, now caused by Exynos Audio Subsystem clock's 
driver, Exynos
I2S driver and Samsung SDHCI driver.

It looks that this issue becomes even more problematic now and urgently 
needs
a proper fix, because it gets really hard to make more workarounds 
everywhere else.
For now I will probably drop Exynos AudioSS patch from this series and 
send a revert
for commit 9b41da80e09128574f09bed8dc5a5fc6f72a8239 ("ASoC: samsung: 
i2s: Provide
I2S device for registered clocks"), which has to wait until the deadlock 
gets proper
generic fix.

Best regards
