Since at least kernel 6.1, flush_dcache_page() is called with IRQs disabled, e.g. from aio_complete(). But the current implementation for flush_dcache_page() on NIOS2 unintentionally re-enables IRQs, which may lead to deadlocks. Fix it by using xa_lock_irqsave() and xa_unlock_irqrestore() for the flush_dcache_mmap_*lock() macros instead.

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.
