-Subject: [PATCH] spi: Pump transfers inside calling context for spi_sync()
-
-If we are using the standard SPI message pump (which all drivers should be
-transitioning over to) then special case the message enqueue and instead of
-starting the worker thread to push messages to the hardware do so in the
-context of the caller if the controller is idle. This avoids a context
-switch in the common case where the controller has a single user in a
-single thread, for short PIO transfers there may be no need to context
-switch away from the calling context to complete the transfer.
-
-The code is a bit more complex than is desirable in part due to the need
-to handle drivers not using the standard queue and in part due to handling
-the various combinations of bus locking and asynchronous submission in
-interrupt context.
-
-It is still suboptimal since it will still wake the message pump for each
-transfer in order to schedule idling of the hardware and if multiple
-contexts are using the controller simultaneously a caller may end up
-pumping a message for some random other thread rather than for itself,
-and if the thread ends up deferring due to another context idling the
-hardware then it will just busy wait.  It can, however, have the benefit
-of aggregating power up and down of the hardware when a caller performs
-a series of transfers back to back without any need for the use of
-spi_async().
