Yikes!!

So how is this supposed to work from NMI context and the like?

(also, at the very least, that should be a raw_spinlock_t)

What do you need the spinlock for? Afaict this is a 'simple' polling
event handling loop on MMIO, right?

All we really need to guarantee is that there's only a single CPU trying
to do that at any one time.

Wouldn't something like:

  https://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=147681099108509&w=2

already take care of that? Then you can drop the lock and things will
work 'nested'.

Excuse my total lack of USB knowledge, but WTH does this do and what do
we need it for?
