[Severity: High]
This is a pre-existing issue, but can concurrent SPMI commands from different
contexts interleave I/O register accesses here and corrupt the hardware FIFO?
Multiple client drivers registered on the same SPMI bus might perform
concurrent reads and writes using their own regmap instances.
Because spmi_raw_cmd() is entered concurrently by multiple threads, it issues
multiple sequential writel() and readl() calls to the shared hardware FIFOs
without holding a bus-level spinlock or mutex.
Could this lead to malformed SPMI bus transactions if thread writes get
interleaved in this loop?
