The driver may sleep while holding a spinlock. The function call path (from bottom to top) in Linux 4.19 is: drivers/media/platform/sti/bdisp/bdisp-hw.c, 385: msleep in bdisp_hw_reset drivers/media/platform/sti/bdisp/bdisp-v4l2.c, 341: bdisp_hw_reset in bdisp_device_run drivers/media/platform/sti/bdisp/bdisp-v4l2.c, 317: _raw_spin_lock_irqsave in bdisp_device_run To fix this bug, msleep() is replaced with mdelay(). This bug is found by a static analysis tool STCheck written by myself.
