[ Upstream commit 796a2665ca3e91ebaba7222f76fd9a035714e2d8 ]
On arm imx6, when opening the chip's netdev, the whole Linux
kernel intermittently hangs/freezes.
This is caused by a bug in the driver code which tests if pcie
interrupts are working correctly, using the software interrupt:
1. open: enable the software interrupt
2. open: tell the chip to assert the software interrupt
3. open: wait for flag
4. ISR: acknowledge s/w interrupt, set flag
5. open: notice flag, disable the s/w interrupt, continue
Unfortunately the ISR only acknowledges the s/w interrupt, but
does not disable it. This will re-trigger the ISR in a tight
loop.
On some (lucky) platforms, open proceeds to disable the s/w
interrupt even while the ISR is 'spinning'. On arm imx6,
the spinning ISR does not allow open to proceed, resulting
in a hung Linux kernel.
Fix minimally by disabling the s/w interrupt in the ISR, which
will prevent it from spinning. This won't break anything because
the s/w interrupt is used as a one-shot interrupt.
Note that this is a minimal fix, overlooking many possible
cleanups, e.g.:
- lan743x_intr_software_isr() is completely redundant and reads
INT_STS twice for no apparent reason
- disabling the s/w interrupt in lan743x_intr_test_isr() is now
redundant, but harmless
- waiting on software_isr_flag can be converted from a sleeping
poll loop to wait_event_timeout()

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.
