Jerome Brunet 30e2d7fc3b ASoC: meson: axg-fifo: fix irq scheduling issue with PREEMPT_RT
[ Upstream commit 5003d0ce5c7da3a02c0aff771f516f99731e7390 ]

With PREEMPT_RT enabled a spinlock_t becomes a sleeping lock.

This is usually not a problem with spinlocks used in IRQ context since
IRQ handlers get threaded. However, if IRQF_ONESHOT is set, the primary
handler won't be force-threaded and runs always in hardirq context. This is
a problem because spinlock_t requires a preemptible context on PREEMPT_RT.

In this particular instance, regmap mmio uses spinlock_t to protect the
register access and IRQF_ONESHOT is set on the IRQ. In this case, it is
actually better to do everything in threaded handler and it solves the
problem with PREEMPT_RT.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
