From: Kuninori Morimoto <kuninori.morimoto.gx@xxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit b545542a0b866f7975254e41c595836e9bc0ff2f ] commit 34ac3c3eb8f0c07 ("ASoC: core: lock client_mutex while removing link components") added mutex_lock() at soc_remove_link_components(). Is is called from snd_soc_unbind_card() snd_soc_unbind_card() => soc_remove_link_components() soc_cleanup_card_resources() soc_remove_dai_links() => soc_remove_link_components() And, there are 2 way to call it. (1) snd_soc_unregister_component() ** mutex_lock() snd_soc_component_del_unlocked() => snd_soc_unbind_card() ** mutex_unlock() (2) snd_soc_unregister_card() => snd_soc_unbind_card() (1) case is already using mutex_lock() when it calles snd_soc_unbind_card(), thus, we will get lockdep warning. commit 495f926c68ddb90 ("ASoC: core: Fix deadlock in snd_soc_instantiate_card()") tried to fixup it, but still not enough. We still have lockdep warning when we try unbind/bind. We need mutex_lock() under snd_soc_unregister_card() instead of snd_remove_link_components()/snd_soc_unbind_card().
