[PATCH 3/3] mailbox: pcc: Fix command timeout due to missed interrupt

Newsgroups org.kernel.vger.linux-acpi,org.kernel.vger.linux-kernel
Message-ID <[email protected]>
From: Huisong Li <[email protected]>

PCC command execution can time out when a fast platform completes a
transaction and signals the platform interrupt before pcc_send_data()
marks the channel as in use. For shared platform interrupts, the type 3
handler uses chan_in_use to decide whether the interrupt belongs to the
channel. If it observes false, it ignores the completion and the caller
waits until timeout.

Publish chan_in_use before ringing the doorbell. Use WRITE_ONCE() for
the lockless flag update and READ_ONCE() in the interrupt handler when
filtering shared interrupts. The following ordered MMIO accessor used for
the doorbell keeps the earlier store visible before the platform is
notified.

Clear chan_in_use with WRITE_ONCE() when completing the transaction,
matching the lockless flag protocol used by the interrupt and send paths.
