While l2cap_user callbacks are running, the whole hci_dev is locked. Even if we would add more fine-grained locking to HCI core, it would still be called from the non-reentrant rx work-queue and thus block the event processing. However, if we want to perform synchronous I/O during HID device registration (eg., to perform device-detection), we need the HCI core to be able to dispatch incoming data. Therefore, we now move device-registration to a separate worker. The HCI core can continue running and we add devices asynchronously in another kernel thread. Device removal is synchronized and waits for the worker to exit before calling the usual device removal functions. If l2cap_user->remove is called before the thread registered the devices, we set "terminate" to true and the thread will skip it. If l2cap_user->remove is called after it, we notice this as the device is no longer in HIDP_SESSION_PREPARING state and simply unregister the device as we did before. There is no new deadlock as we now call hidp_session_add_dev() with one lock less held (the HCI lock) and it cannot itself call back into HCI as it was called with the HCI-lock held before. One might wonder whether this can block during device unregistration. But we set "terminate" to true and wake the HIDP thread up _before_ unregistering the HID/input devices. Therefore, all pending HID I/O operations are canceled. All further I/O attempts will fail with ENODEV or EIO. So all latency we can get are few context-switches, but no timeouts or blocking I/O waits! This change also prepares for a long standing HID bug. All HID devices that register power_supply devices need to be able to handle callbacks during registration (a power_supply oddity that cannot easily be fixed). So with this patch available, we can allow HID I/O during registration by calling the recently introduced hid_device_io_start/stop helpers, which currently are a no-op for bluetooth due to this locking. Note that we cannot do the same for input devices. input-core doesn't allow us to call input_event() asynchronously to input_register_device(), which HID-core kindly allows (for good reasons). Fixing input-core to allow this isn't as easy as it sounds and is, beside simplifying HIDP, not really an improvement. Hence, we still register input devices synchronously as we did before. Only HID devices are registered asynchronously.
