There are two states in i.MX6Q cpuidle driver.
state[1]: ARM WFI mode
state[2]: i.MX6Q WAIT mode

Take i.MX6DL as example, think out such a case:
1. CPU0/1 both run at normal mode
2. On CPU0, `sleep 1` is executed. And there are no workload on CPU1.
3. CPU0 first runs into state[2] and 'wfi' instruction. Switched to use
   GPT broadcast.
4. CPU1 runs into state[2] and configure CCM to WAIT MODE,
   then 'wfi' instruction. Now arm_clk and local timer clock are
   shutdown. Switched to use GPT broadcast
5. GPT broadcast timer interrupt comes to GPC/GIC, then CPU0 wakes up.
   CPU0 switched to use arm local timer. CPU1 is still sleeping.
6. No workload on CPU0, CPU0 runs into state[1]. But CCM register
   is still not restored to Normal RUN mode. 'wfi' + CCM WAIT will
   cause arm_clk and arm core clk.
   Now CPU0 stops, which is not correct.

So, need to make sure CCM configured to RUN mode when any cpu exit
state[2].

In this patch,
When CPU exits state[2], it configures CCM to RUN mode.
When all CPUs enters state[2], the last CPU needs to check
whether it's ok to configure CCM to WAIT mode or not.

To me this patch seems like we are adding duct tape to fix the issue. 

It seems the whole master_lock thing doesn't properly work when the CPU
that is woken up by the timer broadcast isn't the last CPU going to
sleep. We should probably try to come up with a way to simplify this
whole master dance, instead of adding yet more complexity.

Regards,
Lucas

The master_lock is used to protect multiple CPUS runs into State[1].
It could not be used to protect the CPU runs into State[0].

The patch is to make sure that before arm clk turned off, need to check
whether all the cpus are in State[1]. And the cpu who first wake up from
State[1], need to configure CCM to RUN mode.

This patch has been integrated into vendor kernel and fixed customer's issue.
I could not think out of a better solution to restructure the master lock,
and this may introduce new issues.

Thanks,
Peng.

How does the issue manifest exactly? How can we reproduce the issue?
