IIO triggers are software IRQ chips that split an incoming IRQ into separate IRQs routed to all devices using the trigger. When all consumers are done then a trigger callback reenable() is called. There are a few circumstances under which this can happen in atomic context. 1) A single user of the trigger that calls the iio_trigger_done() function from interrupt context. 2) A race between disconnecting the last device from a trigger and the trigger itself sucessfully being disabled. To avoid a resulting scheduling whilst atomic, close this second corner by using schedule_work() to ensure the reenable is not done in atomic context. Note that drivers must be careful to manage the interaction of set_state() and reenable() callbacks to ensure appropriate reference counting if they are relying on the same hardware controls. Deliberately taking this the slow path rather than via a fixes tree because the error has hard to hit and I would like it to soak for a while before hitting a release kernel.

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.
