Linux kernel source tree
85985a3dcd
It has been discovered that there is a potential deadlock between
the clock-change-notifier thread and the UART port suspending one:
CPU0 (suspend CPU/UART) CPU1 (update clock)
---- ----
lock(&port->mutex);
lock((work_completion)(&data->clk_work));
lock(&port->mutex);
lock((work_completion)(&data->clk_work));
*** DEADLOCK ***
The best way to fix this is to eliminate the CPU0
port->mutex/work-completion scenario. So we suggest to register and
unregister the clock-notifier during the DW APB UART port probe/remove
procedures, instead of doing that at the points of the port
startup/shutdown.

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.
