PATCH 1/1 ufs: core: fix lockdep warning of clk_scaling_lock

From: Peter Wang <[email protected]>

There have a lockdep warning like below in current flow. kworker/u16:0: Possible unsafe locking scenario:

kworker/u16:0:        CPU0                    CPU1
kworker/u16:0:        ----                    ----

kworker/u16:0: lock(&hba->clk_scaling_lock);
kworker/u16:0: lock(&hba->dev_cmd.lock);
kworker/u16:0: lock(&hba->clk_scaling_lock);
kworker/u16:0: lock(&hba->dev_cmd.lock);
kworker/u16:0:

Because ufshcd_wb_toggle -> ufshcd_query_flag -> ufshcd_exec_dev_cmd will get read lock of clk_scaling_lock, so ufshcd_devfreq_scale can release read lock before call ufshcd_wb_toggle.
This patch only release write lock of clk_scaling_lock before ufshcd_wb_toggle.

The above is not clear to me. Please make the above more clear.

Additionally, patches must be signed before these can be merged upstream. Where is your Signed-off-by?

The patch description should mention that this patch changes the ufshcd_wb_toggle() call: before this patch clk_scaling_lock was held in reader mode during the ufshcd_wb_toggle() call and with this patch applied clk_scaling_lock is not held while ufshcd_wb_toggle() is called. I'm missing an explanation of why this change is safe.

Thanks,

Bart.

Hi Bart,

okay, I will make this path more clear and add Signed-off-by Thanks for review.
