i2c-omap: Close suspected race between omap_i2c_idle() and omap_i2c_isr()
omap_i2c_idle() sets an internal flag, "dev->idle", instructing its ISR to decline interrupts. It sets this flag before it actually masks the interrupts on the I2C controller. This is problematic, since an I2C interrupt could arrive after dev->idle is set, but before the interrupt source is masked. When this happens, Linux disables the I2C controller's IRQ, causing all future transactions on the bus to fail. Symptoms, happening on about 7% of boots: irq 56: nobody cared (try booting with the "irqpoll" option) <warning traceback here> Disabling IRQ #56 i2c_omap i2c_omap.1: controller timed out In omap_i2c_idle(), this patch sets dev->idle only after the interrupt mask write to the I2C controller has left the ARM write buffer. That's probably the major offender. For additional prophylaxis, in omap_i2c_unidle(), the patch clears the dev->idle flag before interrupts are enabled, rather than afterwards. The patch has survived twenty-two reboots on the 3430SDP here without wedging I2C1. Not absolutely dispositive, but promising!
