AngeloGioacchino Del Regno e0a25be0d4 rpmsg: mtk_rpmsg: Fix circular locking dependency
[ Upstream commit 353d921468 ]

During execution of the worker that's used to register rpmsg devices
we are safely locking the channels mutex but, when creating a new
endpoint for such devices, we are registering a IPI on the SCP, which
then makes the SCP to trigger an interrupt, lock its own mutex and in
turn register more subdevices.
This creates a circular locking dependency situation, as the mtk_rpmsg
channels_lock will then depend on the SCP IPI lock.

To solve this, simply unlock the channels_lock mutex before calling
mtk_rpmsg_register_device() and relock it right after, as safety is
still ensured by the locking mechanism that happens right after
through SCP.

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.
