drm/omap: fix race conditon in DMM The omapdrm DMM code sometimes crashes with: WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 1235 at lib/list_debug.c:36 __list_add+0x8c/0xbc() list_add double add: new=e9265368, prev=e90139c4, next=e9265368. This is caused by the code calling release_engine() twice for the same engine. dmm_txn_commit(wait=true) call is supposed to wait until the DMM transaction has been finished. And it does that, but it does not wait for the irq handler to finish. What happens is that the irq handler is triggered, and it either wakes up the thread that called dmm_txn_commit(), or that thread never even slept because the transaction was finished in the HW very quickly. That thread then continues executing, even if the irq handler is not yet finished, and a new transaction may be initiated. If that transaction is async (i.e. wait=false), a 'async' flag is set to true. The original irq handler, which has yet not finished, then sees the transaction as 'async', even if it was supposed to be 'sync'. When that happens, the irq handler does an extra release_engine() call because it thinks it need to release the engine, leading to the crash. This patch fixes the issue by using completion to ensure that the irq handler has finished before a dmm_txn_commit(wait=true) may continue. Signed-off-by: Tomi Valkeinen <tomi.valkeinen@ti.com>
