Currently reading the stats is done with workqueue.
We decided to move the reading of the stats to the hard irq handler
since it seems and also tested to be fast enough.
The patchset was tested on a Scarlet device with chromeos
and also with the 'cam' command from libcamera in rockpi4 board.
This fixes the TODO item:
'Use threaded interrupt for rkisp1_stats_isr(), remove work queue.'
Patchset Summary:
1. Replace a long bitwise-or of the statistics flags with a macro to improve readability
2. In the 'stop_streaming' callback, replace the usage of 'spin_lock_irqsave' with 'spin_lock_irq'
3. Replace two locks in the rkisp1_stats object with one lock that
protects the 'is_streaming' variable and the 'stat' list of buffers.
4. Move the reading of the stats to the hard irq handler.
Changes since v1:
- patch 1 from v1 "return IRQ_NONE in isr when irq isn't for ISP"
is not needed anymore for this version, it can be sent as a separate patch.
- patch 3 from v1 "stats: use spin_lock_irqsave for irq_lock" is not needed,
since it is enough to use 'spin_lock' in a isr. Instead, patch 2 in this version
is added that replaces 'spin_lock_irqsave' with 'spin_lock_irq' in user context callback.
- the last patch in this version moves the stats reading to the hard irq while
in v1 it was move to threaded irq.
- removing the item 'Use threaded interrupt for rkisp1_stats_isr(), remove work queue.'
from the TODO file.
