accel: ethosu: Serialize job completion

This commit adds spinlock helpers around in_flight_job updates and drains
pending completion IRQs during timeout recovery so a late completion cannot
overwrite the tracking pointer of a newly scheduled job.

[Severity: Low]
Does this commit fail to build when CONFIG_DRM_ACCEL_ARM_ETHOSU is enabled?

This patch includes linux/spinlock.h in drivers/accel/ethosu/ethosu_device.h
and uses dev->job_lock in ethosu_job_set_in_flight(),
ethosu_job_clear_in_flight(), and ethosu_job_init(), but struct ethosu_device
does not declare job_lock yet:

drivers/accel/ethosu/ethosu_device.h:
        struct ethosu_job *in_flight_job;

        /* For dma_fence */
        spinlock_t fence_lock;

The spinlock_t job_lock member declaration appears to have been placed in a
later commit in the series, commit b4de18ee902b ("accel: ethosu: Keep
scheduler after unplug"), which breaks compilation and git bisectability at
this commit. Should the job_lock declaration in struct ethosu_device be moved
into this patch?

[Severity: Medium]
Can ethosu_job_timedout() still clear the next job's in_flight_job pointer
and reset the NPU while a newly submitted job is running?

When work_tdr calls drm_sched_job_timedout(), the timed-out job (bad) is
removed from sched->pending_list before ethosu_job_timedout(bad) is invoked,
while sched->submit_wq remains active until drm_sched_stop() is called:

ethosu_job_timedout()
  cmdaddr = readl_relaxed(dev->regs + NPU_REG_QREAD);
  running = FIELD_GET(STATUS_STATE_RUNNING, ...);
  if (running)
    readl_relaxed_poll_timeout(...);
  dev_err(...);
  drm_sched_stop(&dev->sched, bad);
  ethosu_job_clear_in_flight(dev);

If bad completes just before NPU_REG_STATUS is read (so running is false) or
right after readl_relaxed_poll_timeout() expires while dev_err() is running,
ethosu_job_irq_handler_thread()->ethosu_job_handle_irq() clears
dev->in_flight_job and signals bad->done_fence.

Signaling bad->done_fence runs drm_sched_job_done_cb()->drm_sched_job_done(),
which decrements sched->credit_count and queues work_free_job and
drm_sched_run_job_work(). Because drm_sched_stop() has not been called yet,
drm_sched_run_job_work()->ethosu_job_run() can set dev->in_flight_job to the
next job and submit it to the hardware.

When ethosu_job_timedout() then calls drm_sched_stop(&dev->sched, bad) and
ethosu_job_clear_in_flight(dev), wouldn't it unconditionally clear the new
job's dev->in_flight_job pointer, reset the NPU underneath it, and cancel the
new job during drm_sched_start(&dev->sched, 0)?

[Severity: High]
What happens on this error path if CONFIG_PM_SLEEP is disabled, or if
pm_runtime_force_suspend() or pm_runtime_force_resume() fails?

First, DRM_ACCEL_ARM_ETHOSU does not depend on CONFIG_PM_SLEEP. When
CONFIG_PM_SLEEP is disabled, pm_runtime_force_resume() in
include/linux/pm_runtime.h is a stub that unconditionally returns -ENXIO:

static inline int pm_runtime_force_suspend(struct device *dev) { return 0; }
static inline int pm_runtime_force_resume(struct device *dev) { return -ENXIO; }

When CONFIG_PM=y and CONFIG_PM_SLEEP=n, pm_runtime_force_suspend() disables
runtime PM and calls ethosu_device_suspend() to turn off the clocks, and then
pm_runtime_force_resume() returns -ENXIO, causing every timeout recovery to
fail with the NPU left suspended.

Second, before this check, ethosu_job_timedout() calls
drm_sched_stop(&dev->sched, bad), which removes &bad->cb from
bad->s_fence->parent (job->done_fence) and sets bad->s_fence->parent = NULL.
Returning DRM_GPU_SCHED_STAT_ENODEV here skips drm_sched_start(&dev->sched, 0),
which would otherwise see s_job->s_fence->parent == NULL and call
drm_sched_job_done(s_job, -ECANCELED) to signal bad->s_fence->finished
(job->inference_done_fence).

Even during subsequent teardown in ethosu_job_fini()->drm_sched_fini(),
ethosu_job_cancel() only signals job->done_fence:

static void ethosu_job_cancel(struct drm_sched_job *sched_job)
{
        struct ethosu_job *job = to_ethosu_job(sched_job);

        if (dma_fence_was_initialized(job->done_fence) &&
            !dma_fence_is_signaled(job->done_fence)) {
                dma_fence_set_error(job->done_fence, -ECANCELED);
                dma_fence_signal(job->done_fence);
        }
}

Because drm_sched_stop() already detached &bad->cb from job->done_fence,
signaling job->done_fence will not signal bad->s_fence->finished. Wouldn't
that leave bad->s_fence->finished permanently unsignaled, hanging callers in
ethosu_ioctl_bo_wait() and drm_sched_entity_kill() and triggering a warning in
dma_fence_release() when ethosu_job_free() frees the job?

[Severity: High]
Is calling synchronize_irq(dev->irq) after pm_runtime_force_suspend() safe if
an IRQ is already in flight?

Both ethosu_job_irq_handler() and
ethosu_job_irq_handler_thread()->ethosu_job_handle_irq() read NPU_REG_STATUS
from dev->regs:

static void ethosu_job_handle_irq(struct ethosu_device *dev)
{
        u32 status = readl_relaxed(dev->regs + NPU_REG_STATUS);
        struct ethosu_job *job;

        if (status & (STATUS_BUS_STATUS | STATUS_CMD_PARSE_ERR)) {
                dev_err(dev->base.dev, "Error IRQ - %x\n", status);
                drm_sched_fault(&dev->sched);
                return;
        }

In ethosu_job_timedout(), pm_runtime_force_suspend(dev->base.dev) runs
ethosu_device_suspend()->clk_bulk_disable_unprepare() before
synchronize_irq(dev->irq) is called (and synchronize_irq() is skipped entirely
if the suspend/resume check returns early).

If an interrupt fires concurrently with ethosu_job_timedout(), could
ethosu_job_irq_handler() or ethosu_job_handle_irq() read NPU_REG_STATUS while
the NPU clocks are disabled during the window between
pm_runtime_force_suspend() and pm_runtime_force_resume(), or call
drm_sched_fault(&dev->sched) after drm_sched_stop() cancelled sched->work_tdr?
