[media] media: fix waitqueue_active without memory barrier in cpia2 driver
cpia2_usb_disconnect() seems to be missing a memory barrier which might
cause the waker to not notice the waiter and miss sending a wake_up as
in the following figure.
cpia2_usb_disconnect sync
------------------------------------------------------------------------
mutex_unlock(&cam->v4l2_lock);
if (waitqueue_active(&cam->wq_stream))
/* The CPU might reorder the test for
the waitqueue up here, before
prior writes complete */
/* wait_event_interruptible */
/* __wait_event_interruptible */
/* ___wait_event */
long __int = prepare_to_wait_event(
&wq, &__wait, state);
if (!cam->streaming ||
frame->status == FRAME_READY)
cam->curbuff->status = FRAME_READY;
cam->curbuff->length = 0;
schedule()
------------------------------------------------------------------------
The attached patch removes the call to waitqueue_active() leaving just
wake_up() behind. This fixes the problem because the call to
spin_lock_irqsave() in wake_up() will be an ACQUIRE operation.
I found this issue when I was looking through the linux source code
for places calling waitqueue_active() before wake_up*(), but without
preceding memory barriers, after sending a patch to fix a similar
issue in drivers/tty/n_tty.c (Details about the original issue can be
found here: https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/9/28/849).
