[ Upstream commit 2bc9cd66eb25d0fefbb081421d6586495e25840e ]
If an IIO driver uses callbacks from another IIO driver and calls
iio_channel_start_all_cb() from one of its buffer setup ops, then
lockdep complains due to the lock nesting, as in the below example with
lmp91000.
Since the locks are being taken on different IIO devices, there is no
actual deadlock. Fix the warning by telling lockdep to use a different
class for each iio_device.
============================================
WARNING: possible recursive locking detected
--------------------------------------------
python3/23 is trying to acquire lock:
(&indio_dev->mlock){+.+.}-{3:3}, at: iio_update_buffers
but task is already holding lock:
(&indio_dev->mlock){+.+.}-{3:3}, at: enable_store
other info that might help us debug this:
Possible unsafe locking scenario:
CPU0
----
lock(&indio_dev->mlock);
lock(&indio_dev->mlock);
*** DEADLOCK ***
May be due to missing lock nesting notation
5 locks held by python3/23:
#0: (sb_writers#5){.+.+}-{0:0}, at: ksys_write
#1: (&of->mutex){+.+.}-{3:3}, at: kernfs_fop_write_iter
#2: (kn->active#14){.+.+}-{0:0}, at: kernfs_fop_write_iter
#3: (&indio_dev->mlock){+.+.}-{3:3}, at: enable_store
#4: (&iio_dev_opaque->info_exist_lock){+.+.}-{3:3}, at: iio_update_buffers
Call Trace:
