As reported recently, ALSA core info helper may cause a deadlock at the forced device disconnection during the procfs operation. The proc_remove() (that is called from the snd_card_disconnect() helper) has a synchronization of the pending procfs accesses via wait_for_completion(). Meanwhile, ALSA procfs helper takes the global mutex_lock(&info_mutex) at both the proc_open callback and snd_card_info_disconnect() helper. Since the proc_open can't finish due to the mutex lock, wait_for_completion() never returns, either, hence it deadlocks. TASK#1 TASK#2 proc_reg_open() takes use_pde() snd_info_text_entry_open() snd_card_disconnect() snd_info_card_disconnect() takes mutex_lock(&info_mutex) proc_remove() wait_for_completion(unused_pde) ... waiting task#1 closes mutex_lock(&info_mutex) => DEADLOCK This patch is a workaround for avoiding the deadlock scenario above. The basic strategy is to move proc_remove() call outside the mutex lock. proc_remove() can work gracefully without extra locking, and it can delete the tree recursively alone. So, we call proc_remove() at snd_info_card_disconnection() at first, then delete the rest resources recursively within the info_mutex lock. After the change, the function snd_info_disconnect() doesn't do disconnection by itself any longer, but it merely clears the procfs pointer. So rename the function to snd_info_clear_entries() for avoiding confusion. The similar change is applied to snd_info_free_entry(), too. Since the proc_remove() is called only conditionally with the non-NULL entry->p, it's skipped after the snd_info_clear_entries() call.
