acpi_remove_pm_notifier() ends up calling flush_workqueue() while holding acpi_pm_notifier_lock, and that same lock is taken by by the work via acpi_pm_notify_handler(). This can deadlock.
OK, good catch!

But this doesn't look good to me.
notifier_present should be checked under acpi_pm_notifier_lock.
Actually, acpi_install_notify_handler() itself need not be called under the lock, because it does sufficient checks of its own.
So say you do
mutex_lock(&acpi_pm_notifier_lock);
if (adev->wakeup.context.dev) goto out;
adev->wakeup.ws = wakeup_source_register(dev_name(&adev->dev)); adev->wakeup.context.dev = dev; adev->wakeup.context.func = func;
mutex_unlock(&acpi_pm_notifier_lock);
status = acpi_install_notify_handler(adev->handle, ACPI_SYSTEM_NOTIFY, acpi_pm_notify_handler, NULL); if (ACPI_FAILURE(status)) goto out;
mutex_lock(&acpi_pm_notifier_lock);
And here you just set notifier_present under acpi_pm_notifier_lock.
adev->wakeup.ws = wakeup_source_register(dev_name(&adev->dev));
adev->wakeup.context.dev = dev;
adev->wakeup.context.func = func; adev->wakeup.flags.notifier_present = true;
mutex_unlock(&acpi_pm_notifier_lock);
out:
mutex_unlock(&acpi_pm_notifier_lock);
mutex_unlock(&acpi_pm_notifier_install_lock); return status;
}
Then on removal you can clear notifier_present first and drop the lock around the acpi_remove_notify_handler() call and nothing bad will happen.
If you call acpi_add_pm_notifier() twice in parallel, the first instance will set context.dev and the second one will see it set and bail out. The first instance will then do the rest.
If you call acpi_remove_pm_notifier() twice in a row, the first instance will see notifier_present set and will clear it, so the second one will see notifier_present unset and it will bail out.
Now, if you call acpi_remove_pm_notifier() in parallel with acpi_add_pm_notifier(), either the former will see notifier_present unset and bail out, or the latter will see context.dev unset and bail out.
It doesn't look like the outer lock is needed, or have I missed anything?
So something like the below (totally untested) should work too, shouldn't it?
There is a problem if a device is removed while acpi_add_pm_notifier() is still in progress, in which case with my patch the acpi_remove_pm_notifier() called from the removal path may bail out prematurely (that doesn't seem likely to happen, but still I don't see why it cannot happen), so I'll just use your patch. :-)
OK. I was just looking at your version and was pretty much convinced that it would work. But I'll take your word that it might not :)
Well, you don't have to. :-)
The scenario I have in mind is as follows:
1. acpi_add_pm_notifier() sets context.dev and context.func and drops the lock. notifier_present is still unset.
2. acpi_remove_pm_notifier() checks notifier_present under the lock. It is (still) unset, so the function decides that there's nothing to do.
3. acpi_add_pm_notifier() continues with notifier installation and the device goes away at the same time.
