Apologies, I have been working on a v4 that includes these
improvements. It does indeed look much nicer using assigned
parents etc. I think it might be best to drop these for now until
those are ready to send.
The only problem I really have left to sort out before I can send
it are some locking issues. It is quite tricky to get interaction
between the clocking and SPI frameworks to play nicely. The SPI
framework will sometimes punt the actually processing for the
transfer to a worker thread which will often perform operations
on clocks required for the SPI. Because this is a seperate
thread it isn't handled by the re-enterant locking in the clock
framework. I had been working around this using async transfers
for the SPI, but even then I have since found you can get lockdep
warnings because of the potential mutex inversion (SPI mutex and
the clock one).
Any suggestions on this front would be greatly appreciated?
Thanks, Charles
