    ASoC: qcom: Actually clear DMA interrupt register for HDMI · c8d251f5
    Stephen Boyd authored
    In commit da0363f7 ("ASoC: qcom: Fix for DMA interrupt clear reg
    overwriting") we changed regmap_write() to regmap_update_bits() so that
    we can avoid overwriting bits that we didn't intend to modify.
    Unfortunately this change breaks the case where a register is writable
    but not readable, which is exactly how the HDMI irq clear register is
    designed (grep around LPASS_HDMITX_APP_IRQCLEAR_REG to see how it's
    write only). That's because regmap_update_bits() tries to read the
    register from the hardware and if it isn't readable it looks in the
    regmap cache to see what was written there last time to compare against
    what we want to write there. Eventually, we're unable to modify this
    register at all because the bits that we're trying to set are already
    set in the cache.
    
    This is doubly bad for the irq clear register because you have to write
    the bit to clear an interrupt. Given the irq is level triggered, we see
    an interrupt storm upon plugging in an HDMI cable and starting audio
    playback. The irq storm is so great that performance degrades
    significantly, leading to CPU soft lockups.
    
    Fix it by using regmap_write_bits() so that we really do write the bits
    in the clear register that we want to. This brings the number of irqs
    handled by lpass_dma_interrupt_handler() down from ~150k/sec to ~10/sec.
