Subject: [PATCH v2] PCI: endpoint: Use blocking notifier instead of atomic
Date: Mon, 28 Feb 2022 11:22:40 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220228055240.24774-1-manivannan.sadhasivam@linaro.org> (raw)

The use of atomic notifier causes sleeping in atomic context bug when
the EPC core functions are used in the notifier chain. This is due to the
use of epc->lock (mutex) in core functions protecting the concurrent use of
EPC.

So switch to blocking notifier for getting rid of the bug as it runs in
non-atomic context and allows sleeping in notifier chain.
