On ACPI machines, the tegra i2c module encounters an issue due to a
mutex being called inside a spinlock. This leads to the following bug:
BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/locking/mutex.c:585
in_atomic(): 0, irqs_disabled(): 1, non_block: 0, pid: 1282, name: kssif0010
preempt_count: 0, expected: 0
RCU nest depth: 0, expected: 0
irq event stamp: 0

__i2c_transfer (./include/trace/events/i2c.h:122 drivers/i2c/i2c-core-base.c:2258)
The problem arises because during __pm_runtime_resume(), the spinlock
&dev->power.lock is acquired before rpm_resume() is called. Later,
rpm_resume() invokes acpi_subsys_runtime_resume(), which relies on
mutexes, triggering the error.
To address this issue, devices on ACPI are now marked as not IRQ-safe,
considering the dependency of acpi_subsys_runtime_resume() on mutexes.

While it's a move in the right direction, the real fix is to get rid of
the IRQ safe PM hack completely. Look at how OMAP code was modified for
the last few years and now it's pm_runtime_irq_safe()-free. The main
(ab)users are SH code followed by Tegra drivers.
So, can we fix this once for all?

Thanks.
I think these are two different goals here. This near term goal is just
fix the driver so it can use the pm_runtime_irq_safe() in a saner
way, avoiding calling mutexes inside spinlocks.
Getting rid of the IRQ safe PM seems to me to be more a long term
desirable goal, and unfortunately I cannot afford doing it now.
Laxman, what is your view on this topic?
