Chengfeng Ye e6571cff84 media: s5p-mfc: Fix potential deadlock on condlock
[ Upstream commit 04d19e6513 ]

As &dev->condlock is acquired under irq context along the following
call chain from s5p_mfc_irq(), other acquisition of the same lock
inside process context or softirq context should disable irq avoid double
lock. enc_post_frame_start() seems to be one such function that execute
under process context or softirq context.

<deadlock #1>

enc_post_frame_start()
--> clear_work_bit()
--> spin_loc(&dev->condlock)
<interrupt>
   --> s5p_mfc_irq()
   --> s5p_mfc_handle_frame()
   --> clear_work_bit()
   --> spin_lock(&dev->condlock)

This flaw was found by an experimental static analysis tool I am
developing for irq-related deadlock.

To prevent the potential deadlock, the patch change clear_work_bit()
inside enc_post_frame_start() to clear_work_bit_irqsave().

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.
