SMBus slave configuration is activated by CFG_SEL[1:0]=0x1 pins state. This is the mode the hub is supposed to be to let this driver work correctly. But a race condition might happen right after reset is cleared due to CFG_SEL[0] pin being multiplexed with SMBus SCL function. In case if the reset pin is handled by a i2c GPIO expander, which is also placed at the same i2c-bus segment as the usb251x SMB-interface connected to, then the hub reset clearance might cause the CFG_SEL[0] being latched in unpredictable state. So sometimes the hub configuration mode might be 0x1 (as expected), but sometimes being 0x0, which doesn't imply to have the hub SMBus-slave interface activated and consequently causes this driver failure. In order to fix the problem we must make sure the GPIO-reset chip doesn't reside the same i2c-bus segment as the SMBus-interface of the hub. If it doesn't, we can safely block the segment for the time the reset is cleared to prevent anyone generating a traffic at the i2c-bus SCL lane connected to the CFG_SEL[0] pin. But if it does, nothing we can do, so just return an error. If we locked the i2c-bus segment and tried to communicate with the GPIO-expander, it would cause a deadlock. If we didn't lock the i2c-bus segment, it would randomly cause the CFG_SEL[0] bit flip.

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. 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.
