Subject: [PATCH v2] spi: cadence-quadspi: Disable irqs during indirect reads

From: Niravkumar L Rabara <[email protected]>

On architecture where reading the SRAM is slower than the pace at
controller fills it, with interrupt enabled while reading from
SRAM FIFO causes unwanted interrupt storm to CPU.

The inner "bytes to read" loop never exits and waits for the completion
so it is enough to only enable the watermark interrupt when we
are out of bytes to read, which only happens when we start the
transfer (waiting for the FIFO to fill up initially) if the SRAM
is slow.

So only using read watermark interrupt, as the current implementation
doesn't utilize the SRAM full and indirect complete read interrupt.
And disable all the read interrupts while reading from SRAM.

Thanks!

[1/1] spi: cadence-quadspi: Disable irqs during indirect reads
commit: 9ee5b6d53b8c99d13a47227e3b7052a1365556c9

All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next
tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during
the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if
problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted.

You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing
and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and
send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed.

If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they
should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing
patches will not be replaced.

Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying
to this mail.

Thanks,
Mark
