Hans de Goede 0ff0705a2e usb: typec: ucsi: Fix AB BA lock inversion
Lockdep reports an AB BA lock inversion between ucsi_init() and
ucsi_handle_connector_change():

AB order:

1. ucsi_init takes ucsi->ppm_lock (it runs with that locked for the
   duration of the function)
2. usci_init eventually end up calling ucsi_register_displayport,
   which takes ucsi_connector->lock

BA order:

1. ucsi_handle_connector_change work is started, takes ucsi_connector->lock
2. ucsi_handle_connector_change calls ucsi_send_command which takes
   ucsi->ppm_lock

The ppm_lock really only needs to be hold during 2 functions:
ucsi_reset_ppm() and ucsi_run_command().

This commit fixes the AB BA lock inversion by making ucsi_init drop the
ucsi->ppm_lock before it starts registering ports; and replacing any
ucsi_run_command() calls after this point with ucsi_send_command()
(which is a wrapper around run_command taking the lock while handling
the command).

Some of the replacing of ucsi_run_command with ucsi_send_command
in the helpers used during port registration also fixes a number of
code paths after registration which call ucsi_run_command() without
holding the ppm_lock:
1. ucsi_altmode_update_active() call in ucsi/displayport.c
2. ucsi_register_altmodes() call from ucsi_handle_connector_change()
   (through ucsi_partner_change())

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.
