Subject: usb: musb: cppi41: restart hrtimer only if not yet done

From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit d2e6d62c9cbbc2da4211f672dbeea08960e29a80 upstream.

commit c58d80f52 ("usb: musb: Ensure that cppi41 timer gets armed on
premature DMA TX irq") fixed hrtimer scheduling bug. There is one left
which does not trigger that often.
The following scenario is still possible:

    lock(&x->lock);
    hrtimer_start(&x->t);
    unlock(&x->lock);

expires:
    t->function();
                                lock(&x->lock);
    lock(&x->lock);             if (!hrtimer_queued(&x->t))
                                        hrtimer_start(&x->t);
                                unlock(&x->lock);

    if (!list_empty(x->early_tx_list))
           ret = HRTIMER_RESTART;
->         hrtimer_forward_now(...)
    } else
           ret = HRTIMER_NORESTART;

    unlock(&x->lock);

and the timer callback returns HRTIMER_RESTART for an armed timer. This
is wrong and we run into the BUG_ON() in __run_hrtimer().
This can happens on SMP or PREEMPT-RT.
The patch fixes the problem by only starting the timer if the timer is
not yet queued.
