There is no point in resuming the h/w just to do flush operations and
doing so takes several locks which cause lockdep issues with the shrinker. Rework the flush operations to only happen when the h/w is already awake.
This avoids taking any locks associated with resuming.

Is the MMU guaranteed to be reset on resume such that the TLBs will always come up clean? Otherwise there are potentially corners where stale entries that we skip here might hang around if the hardware lies about powering things down.

Assuming runtime PM has actually committed to the power off, then on power on panfrost_device_resume() will be called which performs a reset of the GPU which will clear the L2/TLBs so there shouldn't be any problem there.

OK, if panfrost_gpu_soft_reset() is sufficient to guarantee clean TLBs then this looks equivalent to what we did for arm-smmu, so I've no complaints in that regard.

However on second look I've now noticed the panfrost_mmu_flush_range() calls being moved outside of mmu->lock protection. Forgive me if there's basic DRM knowledge I'm missing here, but is there any possibility for multiple threads to create/import/free objects simultaneously on the same FD such that two mmu_hw_do_operation() calls could race and interfere with each other in terms of the AS_LOCKADDR/AS_COMMAND/AS_STATUS dance?

Robin.
