Yeah, you ask the right questions. :-) It's really tricky to get this
100% right. I spent quite some time to get close, but there are likely
still some loopholes. I haven't heard of anyone running into trouble,
though. This driver has been rock solid for the past few years.

I think bam_dmux_remove() should be safe. disable_irq(dmux->pc_irq)
prevents any further delivery of IRQs before doing the final power off.

Yes, I'm pretty sure this race exists in theory. I'm not sure how to
avoid it. We would need an atomic "return current state and enable IRQ"
operation, but I don't think this exists at the moment. Do you have any
suggestions?

Thanks,
Stephan
