The new subdev state code has a possible deadlock scenario during link
validation when the pipeline contains subdevs that support state and
that do not support state.
The current code locks the states of the subdevs on both ends of the
link when starting the link validation, locking the sink side first,
then the source. If either (or both) of the subdevs does not support
state, nothing is done for that subdev at this point, and instead the
locking is handled the old way, i.e. the subdev's ops do the locking
internally.
The issue arises when the sink doesn't support state, but source does,
so the validation code locks the source for the duration of the
validation, and then the sink is locked only when the get_fmt op is
called. So lockdep sees the source locked first, then the sink.
Later, when the streaming is started, the sink's s_stream op is called,
which probably takes the subdev's lock. The op then calls the source's
s_stream, which takes the source's lock. So, the sink is locked first,
then the source.
Note that link validation and stream starting is not done at the same
time, so an actual deadlock should never happen. However, it's still a
clear bug.
Fix this by locking the subdev states only if both subdevs support
state. In other words, we have two scenarios:
1. Both subdevs support state. Lock sink first, then source, and keep
the locks while validating the link.
2. At least one of the subdevs do not support state. Take the lock only
for the duration of the operation (get_fmt or looking at the
routing), and release after the op is done.
Obviously 1. is better, as we have a more consistent view of the states
of the subdevs during validation. 2. is how it has been so far, so it's
no worse than this used to be.
