When DMA is enabled, sh-sci transfer begins with
uart_start()
sci_start_tx()
if (cookie_tx < 0) schedule_work()
Then, starts DMA when wq scheduled, -- (A)
process_one_work()
work_fn_rx()
cookie_tx = desc->submit_tx()
And finishes when DMA transfer ends, -- (B)
sci_dma_tx_complete()
async_tx_ack()
cookie_tx = -EINVAL
(possible another schedule_work())
This A to B sequence is not reentrant, since controlling variables
(for example, cookie_tx above) are not queues nor lists. So, they
must be invoked as A B A B..., otherwise results in kernel crash.
To ensure the sequence, sci_start_tx() seems to test if cookie_tx < 0
(represents "not used") to call schedule_work().
But cookie_tx will not be set (to a cookie, also means "used") until
in the middle of work queue scheduled function work_fn_tx().
This gap between the test and set allows the breakage of the sequence
under the very frequently call of uart_start().
Another gap between async_tx_ack() and another schedule_work() results
in the same issue, too.
This patch introduces a new condition "cookie_tx == 0" just to mark
it is "busy" and assign it within spin-locked region to fill the gaps.
