This approach seems somewhat OK - it will only do the busy-wait in the
"panic=1" case, so existing callers shouldn't be affected. (`panic'
could have had type `bool', btw).
That being said, the code is odd/wrong.
void __mmc_wait_for_req(struct mmc_host *host, struct mmc_request *mrq,
int panic)
{
if (panic) {
DECLARE_WAITQUEUE(wait, current);
mmc_start_request(host, mrq);
spin_lock_irq(&host->wq.lock);
init_waitqueue_head(&host->wq);
add_wait_queue_exclusive(&host->wq, &wait);
set_current_state(TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE);
mdelay(10);
spin_unlock_irq(&host->wq.lock);
} else {
Surely the waitqueue is unneeded and the missing remove_wait_queue() is a
bug and the set_current_state() is a bug and the spin_lock_irq()
appears to be unneeded. afaict you want this:
void __mmc_wait_for_req(struct mmc_host *host, struct mmc_request *mrq,
int panic)
{
if (panic) {
mmc_start_request(host, mrq);
mdelay(10);
} else {
However it is pretty bad to just delay 10 milliseconds and then assume
that the request has completed. Would it not be better to poll for the
IRQ completion, or to poll some hardware flag?
(We can't poll for IRQ completion if the caller has disabled IRQs, but
if the caller has disabled IRQs then the use of spin_lock_irq() instead
of spin_lock_irqsave() is yet another bug!)
