Linux kernel source tree
de88b02c94
The event_notify callback in some cases calls vsc_tp_xfer(), which checks
tp->assert_cnt and waits for it through the tp->xfer_wait wait-queue.
And tp->assert_cnt is increased and the tp->xfer_wait queue is woken o
from the interrupt handler.
So the interrupt handler which is running the event callback is waiting for
itself to signal that it can continue.
This happens to work because the event callback runs from the threaded
ISR handler and while that is running the hard ISR handler will still
get called a second / third time for further interrupts and it is the hard
ISR handler which does the atomic_inc() and wake_up() calls.
But having the threaded ISR handler wait for its own interrupt to trigger
again is not how a threaded ISR handler is supposed to be used.
Move the running of the event callback from a threaded interrupt handler
to a workqueue since a threaded ISR should not wait for events from its
own interrupt.
This is a preparation patch for moving the atomic_inc() and wake_up() calls
to the threaded ISR handler, which is necessary to fix a locking issue.

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 reStructuredText 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.
