[alsa-devel] [PATCH 1/3] sound: usb: line6: Replace mdelay with msleep in line6_read_data

[Jia-Ju Bai]

line6_read_data() is never called in atomic context.

The call chains ending up at line6_read_data() are:
[1] line6_read_data() <- line6_read_serial_number() -> pod_startup4()
[2] line6_read_data() <- line6_read_serial_number() <- 
	podhd_startup_workqueue()
[3] line6_read_data() <- podhd_dev_start() <- podhd_startup_workqueue()
[4] line6_read_data() <- line6_read_serial_number() <- toneport_init()
	<- line6_probe()
[5] line6_read_data() <- toneport_init() <- line6_probe()

pod_startup4() and podhd_startup_workqueue() are set in INIT_WORK().
line6_probe() is called in toneport_probe(), pod_probe(), podhd_probe() 
and variax_probe(), which are set as ".probe" in usb_driver structure.
These functions are not called in atomic context.

Despite never getting called from atomic context, line6_read_data()
calls mdelay for busy wait.
That is not necessary and can be replaced with msleep to 
avoid busy waiting.

This is found by a static analysis tool named DCNS written by myself.
