pinctrl: mcp23s08: Fix sleeping in atomic context due to regmap locking

Browse Source 
commit a37eecb705f33726f1fb7cd2a67e514a15dfe693 upstream.

If a device uses MCP23xxx IO expander to receive IRQs, the following
bug can happen:

  BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context

  in_atomic(): 1, irqs_disabled(): 1, non_block: 0, ...
  preempt_count: 1, expected: 0

We observed the problem while experimenting with a touchscreen driver which
used MCP23017 IO expander (I2C).

The regmap in the pinctrl-mcp23s08 driver uses a mutex for protection from
concurrent accesses, which is the default for regmaps without .fast_io,
.disable_locking, etc.

mcp23s08_irq_set_type() calls regmap_update_bits_base(), and the latter
locks the mutex.

However, __setup_irq() locks desc->lock spinlock before calling these
functions. As a result, the system tries to lock the mutex whole holding
the spinlock.

It seems, the internal regmap locks are not needed in this driver at all.
mcp->lock seems to protect the regmap from concurrent accesses already,
except, probably, in mcp_pinconf_get/set.

mcp23s08_irq_set_type() and mcp23s08_irq_mask/unmask() are called under
chip_bus_lock(), which calls mcp23s08_irq_bus_lock(). The latter takes
mcp->lock and enables regmap caching, so that the potentially slow I2C
accesses are deferred until chip_bus_unlock().

The accesses to the regmap from mcp23s08_probe_one() do not need additional
locking.

In all remaining places where the regmap is accessed, except
mcp_pinconf_get/set(), the driver already takes mcp->lock.

This patch adds locking in mcp_pinconf_get/set() and disables internal
locking in the regmap config. Among other things, it fixes the sleeping
in atomic context described above.
