There is a possble racing scenario.
'process_oq' is called by two routines, as shown below.
pm8001_8001_dispatch = {
.......
.isr = pm8001_chip_isr --> process_oq,// A
.isr_process_oq = process_oq, // B
.....
}
process_oq() --> process_one_iomb() --> mpi_sata_completion()
In 'mpi_sata_completion', "pm8001_ha->lock" is first released.
It means lock is taken before, which is true for
the context A, as 'pm8001_ha->lock' is taken in 'pm8001_chip_isr()'
But for context B there is no lock taken before and pm8001_ha->lock
is unlocked in 'mpi_sata_completion()'. This may unlock the lock
taken in context A. Possible racing ??
If 'pm8001_ha->lock' is taken in 'process_oq()' instead of
'pm8001_chip_isr' then the above issue can be avoided.
