There are two problems with the current vfe_disable_output() routine. Firstly we rightly use a spinlock to protect output->gen2.active_num everywhere except for in the IDLE timeout path of vfe_disable_output(). Even if that is not racy "in practice" somehow it is by happenstance not by design. Secondly we do not get consistent behaviour from this routine. On sc8280xp 50% of the time I get "VFE idle timeout - resetting". In this case the subsequent capture will succeed. The other 50% of the time, we don't hit the idle timeout, never do the VFE reset and subsequent captures stall indefinitely. Rewrite the vfe_disable_output() routine to - Quiesce write masters with vfe_wm_stop() - Set active_num = 0 remembering to hold the spinlock when we do so followed by - Reset the VFE Testing on sc8280xp and sdm845 shows this to be a valid fix.
