Takashi Iwai a4db12abb8 ALSA: hda - Fix cancel_work_sync() stall from jackpoll work
commit 1603764396 upstream.

On AMD/ATI controllers, the HD-audio controller driver allows a bus
reset upon the error recovery, and its procedure includes the
cancellation of pending jack polling work as found in
snd_hda_bus_codec_reset().  This works usually fine, but it becomes a
problem when the reset happens from the jack poll work itself; then
calling cancel_work_sync() from the work being processed tries to wait
the finish endlessly.

As a workaround, this patch adds the check of current_work() and
applies the cancel_work_sync() only when it's not from the
jackpoll_work.

This doesn't fix the root cause of the reported error below, but at
least, it eases the unexpected stall of the whole system.

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.
