Subject: [PATCH v3] i2c: piix4: Avoid race conditions with IMC
Date: Thu, 12 Jan 2017 20:49:46 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170112194946.13925-1-ricardo.ribalda@gmail.com> (raw)

From: Ricardo Ribalda <ricardo.ribalda@gmail.com>

On AMD's SB800 and upwards, the SMBus is shared with the Integrated
Micro Controller (IMC).

The platform provides a hardware semaphore to avoid race conditions
among them. (Check page 288 of the SB800-Series Southbridges Register
Reference Guide http://support.amd.com/TechDocs/45482.pdf)

Without this patch, many access to the SMBus end with an invalid
transaction or even with the bus stalled.

v3: Suggestions by Andy Shevchenko <andy.shevchenko@gmail.com> and
Wolfram Sang <wsa@the-dreams.de>:
 -Use Reported-by instead of Credit-to

v2: Suggestions by Andy Shevchenko <andy.shevchenko@gmail.com>:
 -Rename timeout to retries
 -Use do {} while(--retries) pattern
 -Group new variables
