I can reproduce that, but I have this error coming up before.

The rsnd_soc_dai_trigger() function takes a spinlock, making the context
atomic, which regmap doesn't like as it locks a mutex.

It might be possible to fix this by setting the fast_io field in both the
regmap_config and regmap_bus structures in sound/soc/sh/rcar/gen.c. regmap
will then use a spinlock instead of a mutex. However, even if I believe that
change makes sense and should be done, another atomic context issue will come
from the rcar-dmac driver which allocates memory in the prep_dma_cyclic
function, called by rsnd_dma_start() from rsnd_soc_dai_trigger() with the
spinlock help.

What context is the rsnd_soc_dai_trigger() function called in by the alsa
core ? If it's guaranteed to be a sleepable context, would it make sense to
replace the rsnd_priv spinlock with a mutex ?
