There is a possble racing scenario. 'process_oq' is called by two routines, as shown below. pm8001_8001_dispatch = { ....... .isr = pm8001_chip_isr --> process_oq,// A .isr_process_oq = process_oq, // B ..... } process_oq() --> process_one_iomb() --> mpi_sata_completion() In 'mpi_sata_completion', "pm8001_ha->lock" is first released. It means lock is taken before, which is true for the context A, as 'pm8001_ha->lock' is taken in 'pm8001_chip_isr()' But for context B there is no lock taken before and pm8001_ha->lock is unlocked in 'mpi_sata_completion()'. This may unlock the lock taken in context A. Possible racing ?? If 'pm8001_ha->lock' is taken in 'process_oq()' instead of 'pm8001_chip_isr' then the above issue can be avoided.
