[PATCH AUTOSEL 6.12 60/93] media: platform: exynos4-is: Add hardware sync wait to fimc_is_hw_change_mode()

[Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>]

From: Wentao Liang <vulab@iscas.ac.cn>

[ Upstream commit bd9f6ce7d512fa21249415c16af801a4ed5d97b6 ]

In fimc_is_hw_change_mode(), the function changes camera modes without
waiting for hardware completion, risking corrupted data or system hangs
if subsequent operations proceed before the hardware is ready.

Add fimc_is_hw_wait_intmsr0_intmsd0() after mode configuration, ensuring
hardware state synchronization and stable interrupt handling.

Based on my analysis of the commit and examination of the kernel code,
here is my assessment: **YES** This commit should be backported to
stable kernel trees for the following reasons: ## Analysis of the Code
Change The commit adds a single line
`fimc_is_hw_wait_intmsr0_intmsd0(is);` at line 167 in the
`fimc_is_hw_change_mode()` function in
`drivers/media/platform/samsung/exynos4-is/fimc-is-regs.c`. ## Why This
Should Be Backported 1. **Clear Bug Fix**: The commit message explicitly
states this fixes a race condition where "the function changes camera
modes without waiting for hardware completion, risking corrupted data or
system hangs if subsequent operations proceed before the hardware is
ready." This is a classic hardware synchronization bug. 2. **Consistent
Pattern**: Examining the surrounding code shows that ALL other similar
hardware control functions (`fimc_is_hw_get_setfile_addr()`,
`fimc_is_hw_load_setfile()`, `fimc_is_hw_stream_on()`,
`fimc_is_hw_stream_off()`) already call
`fimc_is_hw_wait_intmsr0_intmsd0()` before writing to hardware
registers. The `fimc_is_hw_change_mode()` function was the only outlier
missing this synchronization. 3. **Minimal and Safe**: The change is
extremely small (one line) and uses an existing, well-tested
synchronization primitive. The `fimc_is_hw_wait_intmsr0_intmsd0()`
function implements a timeout-based wait with proper error handling. 4.
**Critical Subsystem**: This affects camera hardware control in Samsung
Exynos4 SoCs. Hardware synchronization issues in camera drivers can
cause: - System hangs (as mentioned in commit message) - Data corruption
- Unpredictable hardware state 5. **Runtime Safety**: The wait function
has built-in timeout protection (2000 iterations with 1μs delay each),
so it cannot cause infinite hangs even if hardware fails. 6. **Follows
Hardware Protocol**: The pattern clearly shows the proper hardware
protocol is: wait for ready state → write command → trigger interrupt.
The missing wait was a protocol violation. ## Comparison with Historical
References Looking at the provided similar commits marked "NO" for
backporting, they were all: - Documentation/binding changes (commits #1,
#2) - Code cleanup/feature removal (commit #3) - Architecture changes
(commit #4) The one commit marked "YES" (commit #5) was a simple bug fix
correcting a return value check, very similar in nature to this
synchronization fix. This commit fits the stable tree criteria
perfectly: it's a small, contained bug fix addressing a real hardware
synchronization issue that could cause system instability, with minimal
risk of regression.
