[PATCH 3/5] accel/qaic: Flush the transfer list again

From: Jeffrey Hugo
Date: Wed May 17 2023 - 15:36:34 EST


From: Pranjal Ramajor Asha Kanojiya <quic_pkanojiy@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Before calling synchronize_srcu() we clear the transfer list, this is to
allow all the QAIC_WAIT_BO callers to exit otherwise the system could
deadlock. There could be a corner case where more elements get added to
transfer list after we have flushed it. Re-flush the transfer list once
all the holders of dbc->ch_lock have completed execution i.e.
synchronize_srcu() is complete.
