Actually, you should use execute_in_process_context for this ... that
way any current call from user context won't change semantics (i.e. the
notifier will be executed before the call finishes).
I also suspect we might need an atomic notifier chain to be called
in-line ... things like the dma latency notifier need in-line
notification, I can see that some android ones would at all. However,
this question can be deferred until an actual use case is seen.
Also, your implementation is racy: you can't have a single
pm_qos_update_notify_work because that means that only one thread can
use it at once ... and that means the work it is scheduling has to be
begun before it can be re-used. Currently, any thread can blow away the
queued work item, which will likely oops the system.
