[ Upstream commit6e8b2c88fc] The ice_ptp_extts_work() and ice_ptp_periodic_work() functions are both scheduled on the same kthread worker, pf.ptp.kworker. The ice_ptp_periodic_work() function sends to the firmware to interact with the PHY, and must block to wait for responses. This can cause delay in responding to the PFINT_OICR_TSYN_EVNT interrupt cause, ultimately resulting in disruption to processing an input signal of the frequency is high enough. In our testing, even 100 Hz signals get disrupted. Fix this by instead processing the signal inside the miscellaneous interrupt thread prior to handling Tx timestamps. Use atomic bits in a new pf->misc_thread bitmap in order to safely communicate which tasks require processing within the ice_misc_intr_thread_fn(). This ensures the communication of desired tasks from the ice_misc_intr() are correctly processed without racing even in the event that the interrupt triggers again before the thread function exits.

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.
