uio: fix a sleep-in-atomic-context bug in uio_dmem_genirq_irqcontrol()
The driver may sleep while holding a spinlock. The function call path (from bottom to top) in Linux 4.19 is: kernel/irq/manage.c, 523: synchronize_irq in disable_irq drivers/uio/uio_dmem_genirq.c, 140: disable_irq in uio_dmem_genirq_irqcontrol drivers/uio/uio_dmem_genirq.c, 134: _raw_spin_lock_irqsave in uio_dmem_genirq_irqcontrol synchronize_irq() can sleep at runtime. To fix this bug, disable_irq() is called without holding the spinlock. This bug is found by a static analysis tool STCheck written by myself.
