The driver may sleep while holding a read lock. The function call path (from bottom to top) in Linux 4.19 is: sound/pci/ice1712/quartet.c, 414: mutex_lock in reg_write sound/pci/ice1712/quartet.c, 485: reg_write in set_cpld sound/pci/ice1712/quartet.c, 876: set_cpld in qtet_set_rate sound/pci/ice1712/ice1724.c, 687: (FUNC_PTR) qtet_set_rate in snd_vt1724_set_pro_rate sound/pci/ice1712/ice1724.c, 668: _raw_spin_lock_irqsave in snd_vt1724_set_pro_rate (FUNC_PTR) means a function pointer is called. mutex_lock() can sleep at runtime. I am not sure how to properly fix this possible bug, so I only report it. This bug is found by a static analysis tool STCheck written by myself.
