This patch series is a new version of the previous patch posted:
  [PATCH v2] spi: spi-geni-qcom: Speculative fix of "nobody cared" about interrupt
  https://lore.kernel.org/r/20200317133653.v2.1.I752ebdcfd5e8bf0de06d66e767b8974932b3620e@changeid

At this point I've done enough tracing to know that there was a real
race in the old code (not just weakly ordered memory problems) and
that should be fixed with the locking patches.

While looking at this driver, I also noticed we weren't properly
noting error interrupts and also weren't actually using our FIFO
effectively, so I fixed those.

The last patch in the series addresses review feedback about dislike
for the "cur_mcmd" state variable.  It also could possibly make
"abort" work ever-so-slightly more reliably.

Changes in v4:
- Drop 'controller' in comment.
- Use Stephen's diagram to explain the race better.

Changes in v3:
- ("spi: spi-geni-qcom: No need for irqsave variant...") new for v3
- Split out some lock cleanup to previous patch.
- Don't need to read IRQ status register inside spinlock.
- Don't check for state CMD_NONE; later patch is removing state var.
- Don't hold the lock for all of setup_fifo_xfer().
- Comment about why it's safe to Ack interrupts at the end.
- Subject/desc changed since race is definitely there.
- ("spi: spi-geni-qcom: Check for error IRQs") new in v3.
- ("spi: spi-geni-qcom: Actually use our FIFO") new in v3.
- ("spi: spi-geni-qcom: Don't keep a local state variable") new in v3.

Changes in v2:
- Detect true spurious interrupt.
- Still return IRQ_NONE for state machine mismatch, but print warn.

Douglas Anderson (5):
  spi: spi-geni-qcom: No need for irqsave variant of spinlock calls
  spi: spi-geni-qcom: Mo' betta locking
  spi: spi-geni-qcom: Check for error IRQs
  spi: spi-geni-qcom: Actually use our FIFO
  spi: spi-geni-qcom: Don't keep a local state variable
