- * We need the hrtimer_start as a tasklet to avoid
- * the nasty locking problem. :(
- * The problem:
- * - The timer handler is called with the cpu_base->lock
- * already held by hrtimer code.
- * - snd_pcm_period_elapsed() takes the
- * substream->self_group.lock.
- * So far so good.
- * But the snd_pcsp_trigger() is called with the
- * substream->self_group.lock held, and it calls
- * hrtimer_start(), which takes the cpu_base->lock.
- * You see the problem. We have the code pathes
- * which take two locks in a reverse order. This
- * can deadlock and the lock validator complains.
- * The only solution I could find was to move the
- * hrtimer_start() into a tasklet. -stsp
