HWSPNLCK_TIMEOUT is passed to hwspin_lock_timeout_in_atomic(), whose timeout argument is in milliseconds, not microseconds: atomic_delay += HWSPINLOCK_RETRY_DELAY_US; if (atomic_delay > to * 1000) return -ETIMEDOUT; So stm32mp_exti_set_type() asks for a 1 second timeout where the comment next to the macro says it wants 1 millisecond. The semaphore is polled with udelay() from a section that holds chip_data->rlock, a raw_spinlock_t, so preemption stays disabled for the whole wait on every configuration, PREEMPT_RT included. The hwspinlock core documents this explicitly: If the mode is HWLOCK_IN_ATOMIC (called from an atomic context) the timeout is handled with busy-waiting delays, hence shall not exceed few msecs.
