commit da53c36ddd3f118a525a04faa8c47ca471e6c467 upstream.
A potential deadlock was found by Zheng Zhang with a local syzkaller instance.
The problem is that when a non-blocking CEC transmit is canceled by calling cec_data_cancel, that in turn can call the high-level received() driver callback, which can call cec_transmit_msg() to transmit a new message.
The cec_data_cancel() function is called with the adap->lock mutex held, and cec_transmit_msg() tries to take that same lock.
The root cause is that the received() callback can either be used to pass on a received message (and then adap->lock is not held), or to report a canceled transmit (and then adap->lock is held).
This is confusing, so create a new low-level adap_nb_transmit_canceled callback that reports back that a non-blocking transmit was canceled.
And the received() callback is only called when a message is received, as was the case before commit f9d0ecbf56f4 ("media: cec: correctly pass on reply results") complicated matters.
