pinctrl: stm32: program the EXTI mux from .alloc instead of .activate
stm32_gpio_domain_activate() writes the EXTI interrupt multiplexer
through a regmap obtained from the generic syscon driver. The irq core
calls .activate from __setup_irq() with the raw desc->lock held, so this
happens in a raw atomic section. regmap-mmio sets fast_io, and syscon
does not ask for a raw spinlock, so the regmap is protected by a
spinlock_t. On PREEMPT_RT that is a sleeping lock, which must not be
taken there. lockdep reports it as soon as a GPIO interrupt is
requested:
[ BUG: Invalid wait context ]
7.1.13 #7 Not tainted
-----------------------------
kworker/u8:1/29 is trying to lock:
(syscon:117:(&syscon_config)->lock){....}-{3:3}, at: regmap_lock_spinlock
other info that might help us debug this:
context-{5:5}
5 locks held by kworker/u8:1/29:

The driver was already aware of running in atomic context there: it uses
the _in_atomic() hwspinlock primitives around the very same access. The
syscon lock is the one lock in that section it does not control.
Program the mux from .alloc instead, which runs in a sleepable context.
That callback already owns this resource: it reserves the mux line in
pctl->irqmux_map under irqmux_lock, so writing the value it just claimed
is a natural fit, and the value only depends on the bank.
Nothing requires the mux to be reprogrammed at interrupt startup time:
the domain has no .deactivate, .free() only releases the irqmux_map bit
without touching the registers.
Keep the access inside the existing irqmux_lock section rather than
after it. hwspin_lock_timeout_in_atomic() deliberately skips the local
lock that the other hwspinlock modes take, so its caller is responsible
for disabling preemption and for excluding other local contexts; every
other hwspinlock user in this driver relies on bank->lock for that.
irqmux_lock plays the same role here, and it also turns the mux
reservation and the mux write into a single critical section. Nesting
the regmap spinlock_t inside irqmux_lock, itself a spinlock_t, is what
the wait-context checker expects.
Note that this bounds the semaphore hold time on !PREEMPT_RT only. On
PREEMPT_RT spinlock_t disables neither interrupts nor preemption, so the
hardware semaphore can be held across a preemptible section and a
coprocessor contending for it may poll for an unbounded time. That is
not introduced here: bank->lock is a spinlock_t too, so every existing
hwspinlock user in this driver behaves the same way on PREEMPT_RT.
Removing that exposure requires the EXTI mux regmap to be raw-spinlock
based, which the syscon core does not currently offer, and is left for a
separate change.
While moving the code, release the mux reservation when the hwspinlock
cannot be taken, which the .activate callback had no way of doing.
