HID: appletb-kbd: run inactivity autodim from workqueues
commit 1654e53 upstream.
The autodim code in hid-appletb-kbd takes backlight_device->ops_lock
via backlight_device_set_brightness() -> mutex_lock() from two
different atomic contexts:
* appletb_inactivity_timer() is a struct timer_list callback, so it
runs in softirq context. Every expiry triggers
BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/locking/mutex.c:591
Call Trace:
<IRQ>
__might_resched
__mutex_lock
backlight_device_set_brightness
appletb_inactivity_timer
call_timer_fn
run_timer_softirq
* reset_inactivity_timer() is called from appletb_kbd_hid_event() and
appletb_kbd_inp_event(). On real USB hardware these run in
softirq/IRQ context (URB completion and input-event dispatch).
When the Touch Bar has already been dimmed or turned off, the
reset path calls backlight_device_set_brightness() directly to
restore brightness, producing the same warning.
Both call sites hit the same mutex_lock()-from-atomic bug. Fix them
together by moving the blocking work onto the system workqueue:
* Convert the inactivity timer from struct timer_list to
struct delayed_work; the callback (appletb_inactivity_work) now
runs in process context where mutex_lock() is legal.
* Add a dedicated struct work_struct restore_brightness_work and have
reset_inactivity_timer() schedule it instead of calling
backlight_device_set_brightness() directly.
Cancel both works synchronously during driver tear-down alongside the
existing backlight reference drop.
The semantics are unchanged (same delays, same state transitions on
dim, turn-off and user activity); only the execution context of the
sleeping call changes. The timer field and callback are renamed to
match their new type; reset_inactivity_timer() keeps its name because
it is invoked from input event paths that read naturally as "reset
the inactivity timer".
