After this, once I load sound card there are warning prints and failure:

[   71.224324] WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 574 at 
drivers/firmware/tegra/bpmp.c:362 tegra_bpmp_transfer+0x2d0/0x328
[   71.238032] ---[ end trace 88d978f78a82134f ]---
[   71.243033] WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 574 at 
drivers/firmware/tegra/bpmp.c:362 tegra_bpmp_transfer+0x2d0/0x328
[   71.257022] ---[ end trace 88d978f78a821350 ]---
[   71.261965] tegra-audio-graph-card sound: Can't set plla rate for 
270950400, err: -22
...


This happens because, now the atomicity is propagated to BE callbacks 
where the clock settings are done in hw_param(). On Tegra, the clock 
APIs are served by BPMP and warning is seen because of below.

   int tegra_bpmp_transfer()
   {

=>      if (WARN_ON(irqs_disabled()))
             return -EPERM;

         ...

   }


This results in hw_param() failure and all tests fail at my end.
