There is a need to have a helper function which updates cooling device
state from the governors code. With this change governor can use
lock and unlock while calling helper function. This avoid unnecessary
second time lock/unlock which was in previous solution present in
governor implementation. This new helper function must be called
with mutex 'cdev->lock' hold.

The problem is that "req->actual" is a u32, "req->status" is an int, and
iocb->ki_complete() takes a long. We would expect that a negative error
code in "req->status" would translate to a negative long value.
But what actually happens is that because "req->actual" is a u32, the
error codes is type promoted to a high positive value and then remains
a positive value when it is cast to long. (No sign expansion).
We can fix this by casting "req->status" to long.

writes a value to. As OPAL is traditionally big endian this value will
be big endian.

static uint64_t opal_mpipl_query_tag(enum opal_mpipl_tags tag, __be64 *tag_val)

issue but only provided a dubious lockdep splat from an unrelated

Unfortunately these patches were merged before the issue had been

The real issue was first seen on RT which at the time effectively always
set the low_latency flag for all serial drivers by patching
tty_flip_buffer_push(). This in turn revealed that many drivers did not
handle the infamous low_latency behaviour which meant that data was

Commit 5275ad70fe ("tty: serial: mcf: drop uart_port->lock before
calling tty_flip_buffer_push()") claimed to address a locking
issue but only provided a dubious lockdep splat from an unrelated
driver, which in the end turned out to be due a broken local change
carried by the author.
Unfortunately these patches were merged before the issue had been
analysed properly so the commit messages makes no sense whatsoever.
The real issue was first seen on RT which at the time effectively always
set the low_latency flag for all serial drivers by patching
tty_flip_buffer_push(). This in turn revealed that many drivers did not
handle the infamous low_latency behaviour which meant that data was
pushed immediately to the line discipline instead of being deferred to a
work queue.
Since commit a9c3f68f3c ("tty: Fix low_latency BUG"),
tty_flip_buffer_push() always schedules a work item to push data to the
line discipline and there's no need to keep any low_latency hacks
around.

Commit ead76f329f ("ARM: 6763/1: pl011: add optional RX DMA to PL011
v2") added RX DMA support and also reproduced the workaround for the
infamous low_latency behaviour of tty_flip_buffer_push() by dropping and
reacquiring the port lock during receive processing.
Since commit a9c3f68f3c ("tty: Fix low_latency BUG"),

Note that the port lock is also dropped in the PIO path
(see pl011_rx_chars), but it is not clear whether this is still needed
by the DMA code added by the aforementioned commit.
