Lukas Wunner 3c7b30f704 pinctrl: bcm2835: Use raw spinlock for RT compatibility
The BCM2835 pinctrl driver acquires a spinlock in its ->irq_enable,
->irq_disable and ->irq_set_type callbacks.  Spinlocks become sleeping
locks with CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT_FULL=y, therefore invocation of one of the
callbacks in atomic context may cause a hard lockup if at least two GPIO
pins in the same bank are used as interrupts.  The issue doesn't occur
with just a single interrupt pin per bank because the lock is never
contended.  I'm experiencing such lockups with GPIO 8 and 28 used as
level-triggered interrupts, i.e. with ->irq_disable being invoked on
reception of every IRQ.

The critical section protected by the spinlock is very small (one bitop
and one RMW of an MMIO register), hence converting to a raw spinlock
seems a better trade-off than converting the driver to threaded IRQ
handling (which would increase latency to handle an interrupt).

README

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.
