With the recent change to allow out-of-order decoder de-commit it highlights a need to strengthen the in-order decoder commit guarantees. As it stands match_free_decoder() ensures that if 2 regions are racing decoder allocations the one that wins the race will get the lower id decoder, but that still leaves the race to *commit* the decoder. Rather than have this complicated case of "reserved in-order, but may still commit out-of-order", just arrange for the reservation order to match the commit-order. In other words, prevent subsequent allocations until the last reservation is committed. This precludes overlapping region creation events and requires the previous regionN to either move forward to the decoder commit stage or drop its reservation before regionN+1 can move forward. That is, provided that regionN and regionN+1 decode through the same switch port. As a side effect this allows match_free_decoder() to drop its dependency on needing write access to the device_find_child() @data parameter [1].

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
