As DMA Rx can be completed from two places, it is possible that DMA Rx
completes before DMA completion callback had a chance to complete it.
Once the previous DMA Rx has been completed, a new one can be started
on the next UART interrupt. The following race is possible
(uart_unlock_and_check_sysrq_irqrestore() replaced with
spin_unlock_irqrestore() for simplicity/clarity):
CPU0 CPU1
dma_rx_complete()
serial8250_handle_irq()
spin_lock_irqsave(&port->lock)
handle_rx_dma()
serial8250_rx_dma_flush()
__dma_rx_complete()
dma->rx_running = 0
// Complete DMA Rx
spin_unlock_irqrestore(&port->lock)
serial8250_handle_irq()
spin_lock_irqsave(&port->lock)
handle_rx_dma()
serial8250_rx_dma()
dma->rx_running = 1
// Setup a new DMA Rx
spin_unlock_irqrestore(&port->lock)
spin_lock_irqsave(&port->lock)
// sees dma->rx_running = 1
__dma_rx_complete()
dma->rx_running = 0
// Incorrectly complete
// running DMA Rx
This race seems somewhat theoretical to occur for real but handle it
correctly regardless. Check what is the DMA status before complething
anything in __dma_rx_complete().
