This fixes a possible circular locking dependency detected warning seen
with:
- CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING=y
- consumer/provider IIO devices (ex: "voltage-divider" consumer of "adc")
When using the IIO consumer interface, e.g. iio_channel_get(),
the consumer device will likely call iio_read_channel_raw() or similar that
rely on 'info_exist_lock' mutex.
typically:
...
mutex_lock(&chan->indio_dev->info_exist_lock);
if (chan->indio_dev->info == NULL) {
ret = -ENODEV;
goto err_unlock;
}
ret = do_some_ops()
err_unlock:
mutex_unlock(&chan->indio_dev->info_exist_lock);
return ret;
...
Same mutex is also hold in iio_device_unregister().
The following deadlock warning happens when:
- the consumer device has called an API like iio_read_channel_raw()
at least once.
- the consumer driver is unregistered, removed (unbind from sysfs)

Help to reproduce:

sysv {
compatible = "voltage-divider";
io-channels = <&adc 0>;
output-ohms = <22>;
full-ohms = <222>;
};
First, go to iio:deviceX for the "voltage-divider", do one read:
$ cd /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:deviceX
$ cat in_voltage0_raw
Then, unbind the consumer driver. It triggers above deadlock warning.
$ cd /sys/bus/platform/drivers/iio-rescale/

I'm not in principle against the fix. However it is reordering the
remove wrt to the probe which I'm not so keen on.
The cdev register is fundamentally the point where the device
becomes exposed to userspace, so we naturally want to do it last
(and remove it first). I worry that we may have some paths
in which we don't sanity check the existence of info (which
is kind of our backup plan to indicate the device has gone
away).
Are we safe to instead of reordering, just not take the lock
until after the problem functions? Info doesn't go
away until later so I think we are. I haven't looked it in that
much detail though!
Thanks for raising this as it's a nasty little problem.

Hi Jonathan,
I also had it in mind. Just one thing confused me:
- The ->info struct is filled in by the device driver before calling one
of the "iio_device_register" routines.
- But it's assigned to NULL inside the unregister routine.
That's also why I've sent it as RFC.

Ok, thanks for making up my mind :-). As far as I understand, the
"info_exist_lock" targets the inkern users (e.g. exported routines). So,
cdev_device_del() can probably be called unlocked, without reordering.

I'll send a v2 based on your proposal.
Thanks for your help,

Yeah, IIRC we debated whether this was fair use of the pointer
when this handling was originally introduced. The arguement Lars
(I think) made was that we always knew this pointer had no valid
use after this call, so why not use it even if we break the balance
of probe / remove.
