A deadlock is identified when there are three contexts running at the same time: - a HDMI jack work which is calling snd_soc_dapm_sync(). - user space is calling snd_pcm_release() to close pcm device. - pm is calling runtime suspend function of HDMI codec driver. By removing the clear_dapm_works() invocation in the hdac_hdmi_runtime_suspend() function, the snd_pcm_release() could always returns from dapm_power_widgets() function call without blocking the hdac_hdmi_jack_dapm_work() work thread or being blocked by the hdac_hdmi_runtime_suspend() function. The purpose of the jack work is to enable/disable the dapm jack pin so it's not necessary to cancel the work in runtime suspend function which is usually called when pcm device is closed.

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.
