      driver/dma/ioat: Call del_timer_sync() without holding prep_lock · cfb03be6

      The following lockdep splat was observed:

[ 1223.813492] 4 locks held by systemd-shutdow/1:
[ 1223.834677]  #0:  (reboot_mutex){+.+.}, at: [<0000000056d33456>] SYSC_reboot+0x10f/0x300

In the ioat_shutdown() function:

	spin_lock_bh(&ioat_chan->prep_lock);
	set_bit(IOAT_CHAN_DOWN, &ioat_chan->state);
	del_timer_sync(&ioat_chan->timer);
	spin_unlock_bh(&ioat_chan->prep_lock);

According to the synchronization rule for the del_timer_sync() function,
the caller must not hold locks which would prevent completion of the
timer's handler.

The timer structure has its own lock that manages its synchronization.
Setting the IOAT_CHAN_DOWN bit should prevent other CPUs from
trying to use that device anyway, there is probably no need to call
del_timer_sync() while holding the prep_lock. So the del_timer_sync()
call is now moved outside of the prep_lock critical section to prevent
the circular lock dependency.

      dmaengine: mcf-edma: avoid warning for wrong pointer cast · 5b7d0c94
      Angelo Dureghello authored 
      This patch fixes the following compilation warning
reported during x86_64 allmodconfig build:

  drivers/dma/mcf-edma.c: In function 'mcf_edma_filter_fn':
  drivers/dma/mcf-edma.c:296:33: warning: cast from pointer to
integer of different size [-Wpointer-to-int-cast]
        return (mcf_chan->slave_id == (u32)param);
