    scsi: ufs: core: Initialize devfreq synchronously · 7dafc3e0
    Adrien Thierry authored
    During UFS initialization, devfreq initialization is asynchronous:
    ufshcd_async_scan() calls ufshcd_add_lus(), which in turn initializes
    devfreq for UFS. The simple ondemand governor is then loaded. If it is
    built as a module, request_module() is called and throws a warning:

    This occurs because synchronous module loading from async is not
    allowed. According to __request_module():
    
      /*
       * We don't allow synchronous module loading from async.  Module
       * init may invoke async_synchronize_full() which will end up
       * waiting for this task which already is waiting for the module
       * loading to complete, leading to a deadlock.
       */
    
    Such a deadlock was experienced on the Qualcomm QDrive3/sa8540p-ride. With
    DEVFREQ_GOV_SIMPLE_ONDEMAND=m, the boot hangs after the warning.
    
    Fix both the warning and the deadlock by moving devfreq initialization out
    of the async routine.
    
    Tested on the sa8540p-ride by using fio to put the UFS under load, and
    printing the trace generated by
    /sys/kernel/tracing/events/ufs/ufshcd_clk_scaling events. The trace looks
    similar with and without the change.
