irda: ali-ircc: Fix deadlock in ali_ircc_sir_change_speed()
ali_ircc_sir_change_speed() is always called with self->lock held, so acquiring the lock inside it leads to unavoidable deadlock. Call graph: ali_ircc_sir_change_speed() is called from ali_ircc_change_speed() ali_ircc_fir_hard_xmit() under spin_lock_irqsave(&self->lock, flags); ali_ircc_sir_hard_xmit() under spin_lock_irqsave(&self->lock, flags); ali_ircc_net_ioctl() under spin_lock_irqsave(&self->lock, flags); ali_ircc_dma_xmit_complete() ali_ircc_fir_interrupt() ali_ircc_interrupt() under spin_lock(&self->lock); ali_ircc_sir_write_wakeup() ali_ircc_sir_interrupt() ali_ircc_interrupt() under spin_lock(&self->lock); The patch removes spin_lock/unlock from ali_ircc_sir_change_speed().
