    scsi: qla4xxx: Remove in_interrupt() from qla4_82xx_rom_lock() · 014aced1
    Ahmed S. Darwish authored
    qla4_82xx_rom_lock() spins on a certain hardware state until it is
    updated. At the end of each spin, if in_interrupt() is true, it does 20
    loops of cpu_relax(). Otherwise, it yields the CPU.
    
    While in_interrupt() is ill-defined and does not provide what the name
    suggests, it is not needed here: qla4_82xx_rom_lock() is always called
    from process context. Below is an analysis of its callers:
    
      - ql4_nx.c: qla4_82xx_rom_fast_read(), all process context callers:
        => ql4_nx.c: qla4_82xx_pinit_from_rom(), GFP_KERNEL allocation
        => ql4_nx.c: qla4_82xx_load_from_flash(), msleep() in a loop
    
      - ql4_nx.c: qla4_82xx_pinit_from_rom(), earlier discussed
    
      - ql4_nx.c: qla4_82xx_rom_lock_recovery(), bound to "isp_operations"
        ->rom_lock_recovery() hook, which has one process context caller,
        qla4_8xxx_device_bootstrap(), with callers:
          => ql4_83xx.c: qla4_83xx_need_reset_handler(), process, msleep()
          => ql4_nx.c: qla4_8xxx_device_state_handler(), multiple msleep()s
    
      - ql4_nx.c: qla4_82xx_read_flash_data(), has cond_resched()
    
    Remove the in_interrupt() check. Mark, qla4_82xx_rom_lock(), and the
    ->rom_lock_recovery() hook, with "Context: task, can sleep".
    
    Change qla4_82xx_rom_lock() implementation to sleep 20ms, instead of a
    schedule(), for each spin. This is more deterministic, and it matches
    the other implementations bound to ->rom_lock_recovery().
