Subject: [PATCH v7 05/15] firmware: arm_scmi: Handle concurrent and out-of-order messages


Even though in case of asynchronous commands an SCMI platform is
constrained to emit the delayed response message only after the related
message response has been sent, the configured underlying transport could
still deliver such messages together or in inverted order, causing races
due to the concurrent or out-of-order access to the underlying xfer.

Introduce a mechanism to grant exclusive access to an xfer in order to
properly serialize concurrent accesses to the same xfer originating from
multiple correlated messages.

Add additional state information to xfer descriptors so as to be able to
identify out-of-order message deliveries and act accordingly:

 - when a delayed response is expected but delivered before the related
   response, the synchronous response is considered as successfully
   received and the delayed response processing is carried on as usual.

 - when/if the missing synchronous response is subsequently received, it
   is discarded as not congruent with the current state of the xfer, or
   simply, because the xfer has been already released and so, now, the
   monotonically increasing sequence number carried by the late response
   is stale.

v6 --> v7
- re-added xfer refcounting moved out of previous 'monotonic' patch
- removed un-needed 2-way switch in scmi_xfer_state_update()
- renamed scmi_xfer_is_free to scmi_xfer_acquired
- moved scmi_xfer_state_update() call inside scmi_xfer_command_acquire
  to avoid races between msg validation and xfer state update
- added smp_mb() after xfer->state init before .send_message
v5 --> v6
- added spinlock comment
