It has been discovered that there is a potential deadlock between
the clock-change-notifier thread and the UART port suspending one:
CPU0 (suspend CPU/UART) CPU1 (update clock)
---- ----
lock(&port->mutex);
lock((work_completion)(&data->clk_work));
lock(&port->mutex);
lock((work_completion)(&data->clk_work));
*** DEADLOCK ***
The best way to fix this is to eliminate the CPU0
port->mutex/work-completion scenario. So we suggest to register and
unregister the clock-notifier during the DW APB UART port probe/remove
procedures, instead of doing that at the points of the port
startup/shutdown.
