  - PM / devfreq: Synchronize devfreq_monitor_[start/stop] There is a chance if a frequent switch of the     governor done in a loop result in timer list corruption where timer cancel being done from two place one     from cancel_delayed_work_sync() and followed by expire_timers() can be seen from the traces[1]. while true     do echo simple_ondemand > /sys/class/devfreq/1d84000.ufshc/governor echo performance >     /sys/class/devfreq/1d84000.ufshc/governor done It looks to be issue with devfreq driver where     device_monitor_[start/stop] need to synchronized so that delayed work should get corrupted while it is     either being queued or running or being cancelled. Let's use polling flag and devfreq lock to synchronize     the queueing the timer instance twice and work data being corrupted.
