Subject: [RFC PATCH v3 04/14] ACPI/EC: Refine command storm prevention support.
This patch refines EC command storm prevention support.
After applying the race fixes series, we almost cannot see any
in-transaction false irqs. The out-transaction false irqs are normal, they
are triggered by EC firmware for various reasons and will become silent
sooner or later. So the out-transaction false irqs are not accounted in the
original EC driver.
The EC commands are handled by different firmware processes, storming
happening to one command doesn't mean anything to another process. So
ideally, we should only enable storm prevention for the current command so
that the next command can try the efficient interrupt mode again.
This patch improves the command storm prevention by disabling GPE right
after the detection and re-enabling it right before completing the command
transaction using the GPE storming prevention APIs.
Though now we can hardly see false irqs, unit tests can be carried out by
changing the storm threshold to 0 and deleting the 2 "return wakeup"
statements from the advance_transaction(). The test result is as follows:
ACPI : EC: ***** Command(RD_EC) started *****

We can see the command is advanced in the task context after enabling the
polling mode (#) and the next command can still be started from the high
performance IRQ mode (*).
