commit8a9dbb779fupstream. Previously, extcon used the spinlock before calling the notifier_call_chain to prevent the scheduled out of task and to prevent the notification delay. When spinlock is locked for sending the notification, deadlock issue occured on the side of extcon consumer device. To fix this issue, extcon consumer device should always use the work. it is always not reasonable to use work. To fix this issue on extcon consumer device, release locking when sending the notification of connector state.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
