I've tested this v8 patchset after fixing the issue with Exynos TMU with
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20221003132943.1383065-1-daniel.lezcano@xxxxxxxxxx/
patch and I got the following lockdep warning on all Exynos-based boards:


======================================================
WARNING: possible circular locking dependency detected
6.0.0-rc1-00083-ge5c9d117223e #12945 Not tainted
------------------------------------------------------
swapper/0/1 is trying to acquire lock:
c1ce66b0 (&data->lock#2){+.+.}-{3:3}, at: exynos_get_temp+0x3c/0xc8

but task is already holding lock:
c2979b94 (&tz->lock){+.+.}-{3:3}, at:
thermal_zone_device_update.part.0+0x3c/0x528

which lock already depends on the new lock.

I'm wondering if the problem is not already there and related to data->lock ...

Doesn't the thermal zone lock already prevent racy access to the data structure?

Another question: if the sensor clock is disabled after reading it, how does the hardware update the temperature and detect the programed threshold is crossed?

just a gentle ping, as the fix will depend on your answer ;)

Thanks
