Linux kernel source tree
538be0aa86
I was trying to understand this code while working on a warning fix and the locking made no sense: spin_lock_irqsave() is pointless when run inside of an interrupt handler or nested inside of another spin_lock_irq() or spin_lock_irqsave(). Here it turned out that the comment above the function is wrong, as both recv_ishtp_cl_msg_dma() and recv_ishtp_cl_msg() can in fact be called from a work queue rather than an ISR, so we do have to use the irqsave() version once. This fixes the comments accordingly, removes the misleading 'dev_flags' variable and modifies the inner spinlock to not use 'irqsave'. No functional change is intended, this is just for readability and it slightly simplifies the object code.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
