Subject: [PATCH 1/2] mmc: sdhci: Add support for setting parent clock

It is common for SD/MMC host controllers to set the parent clock that
drives the SD/MMC interface in order to support various operating
speeds. Typically, this is performed by calling common clock framework
APIs such as clk_set_rate(). The problem is that these APIs may sleep
and must not be called from within atomic sections and therefore, these
functions cannot be called within the existing 'set_clock' SDHCI
operator because they are called from within the context of a spinlock.
Add a new 'set_parent_clock' operator for the SDHCI driver that is
called early during the SDHCI 'set_ios' before the spinlock is aquire to
give the platform driver the opportunity to set the parent clock rate.

Please note that, unfortunately, the Tegra and MSM SDHCI drivers
currently appear to mis-use the 'set_clock' operator by calling
clk_set_rate(). In the case of Tegra, occasionally but not always,
'scheduling while atomic' errors are reported (so most of the time we
are getting lucky). In the of the MSM SDHCI driver, it is releasing and
re-acquiring the spinlock which is bad.

I have not attempted to fix the MSM driver in this seris, but I am
copying hopefully, the right people to fix it.

Subject: [PATCH 2/2] mmc: tegra: Fix setting of Tegra SDHCI module clock

Commit a8e326a911d3 ("mmc: tegra: implement module external clock change")
implemented the SDHCI 'set_clock' handler for Tegra in order to change the
module clock for the Tegra SDHCI controller by using the CCF API
clk_set_rate(). The problem is the clk_set_rate() may sleep and the
'set_clock' handler is always called from within the context of a spinlock.
Hence, occasionally, 'scheduling while atomic' are seen. Fix this by moving
the setting of the module clock to the new 'set_parent_clock' handler which
is not called from within the context of a spinlock.

Fixes: a8e326a911d3 ("mmc: tegra: implement module external clock change")

Ugh ... not sure what happened here but this should be 'ios->clock'! And
I did test this!

Sorry will resend.

I just posted a patch to remove the spin lock from set_ios(). Does that help?

Yes it does, thanks!

Technically, the only other place this could occur is in
sdhci_request_done() because this also calls ->set_clock() with the
spinlock held. However, this is only called if
SDHCI_QUIRK_CLOCK_BEFORE_RESET is set, which is only currently true for
a device in sdhci-pci-core.c and this one just uses the normal
sdhci_set_clock() routine.

Cheers
Jon
