Yes, that is understood. The mhi_chan->mutex is only used to lock any
channel
enable/start/stop/disable type operations, since these have to be in
order,
it
is essential that we wait for one of the operations to finish before
the
next
one.
Also we avoid a race, for example, at a time when a device crash
forces a
driver
"remove" call, while an operation to start/stop a channel is already
going
on.
Can't you just drop the lock before calling wait_for_completion() and
acquire later? You should add a comment for that also!
So, based on the MHI device sending a command completion, we do not
expect to
receive it out of order and for tighter control, we also do not want to
allow
multiple commands to be issued unless one has been responded to or times
out due
to reasons outside of MHI's control.
We share a common completion variable for a channel and multiple
commands issued
for channel state changes can result in the completions being
mishandled.
For example, if we send two commands for the same channel - stop and
reset and
end up dropping/re-acquiring the lock while waiting for stop channel
completion
as a response, we could see a reinit_completion() before the complete()
and the
waiter keeps waiting as a result because the complete() is not seen till
the
next command response comes in. We may also have to move to
complete_all() for
this purpose, as these could come from different threads.
Another example is a failure to move states could be seen when dropping
and
re-acquiring the lock if stop and start channel commands are issued back
to back
whereas we will not see the issue with current behavior as a start will
wait for
a stop to fully complete.

So I am trying to follow the documentation style for other functions
in the
same
file. Is there any particular format you want me to refer to?
I use all spaces for the lines after the first one to align them just
like
the
rest of them.
The diff shows me of below style:
/**
+ *
+ *
...
+ /**
I just asked to fix this.
I don't see an extra space. Is that it? All functions I see are of the
style:
/**
* foo - function desc
*
* @param: Desc
*
*/
