PCI: Avoid race while enabling upstream bridges
When we enable a device, we first enable any upstream bridges. If a bridge has multiple downstream devices and we enable them simultaneously, the race to enable the upstream bridge may cause problems. Consider this hierarchy: bridge A --+-- device B +-- device C If drivers for B and C call pci_enable_device() simultaneously, both will attempt to enable A, which involves setting PCI_COMMAND_MASTER via pci_set_master() and PCI_COMMAND_MEMORY via pci_enable_resources(). In the following sequence, B's update to set A's PCI_COMMAND_MEMORY is lost, and neither B nor C will work correctly: B C pci_set_master(A) cmd = read(A, PCI_COMMAND) cmd |= PCI_COMMAND_MASTER pci_set_master(A) cmd = read(A, PCI_COMMAND) cmd |= PCI_COMMAND_MASTER write(A, PCI_COMMAND, cmd) pci_enable_device(A) pci_enable_resources(A) cmd = read(A, PCI_COMMAND) cmd |= PCI_COMMAND_MEMORY write(A, PCI_COMMAND, cmd) write(A, PCI_COMMAND, cmd) Avoid this race by holding a new pci_bridge_mutex while enabling a bridge. This ensures that both PCI_COMMAND_MASTER and PCI_COMMAND_MEMORY will be updated before another thread can start enabling the bridge. Note that although pci_enable_bridge() is recursive, it enables any upstream bridges *before* acquiring the mutex. When it acquires the mutex and calls pci_set_master() and pci_enable_device(), any upstream bridges have already been enabled so pci_enable_device() will not deadlock by calling pci_enable_bridge() again.
