firmware: samsung: acpm: Fix infinite loop on sequence number exhaustion
Sashiko identified a possible infinite loop [1].
ACPM IPC sequence numbers are tracked via a 64-bit bitmap. Previously,
acpm_prepare_xfer() used a do...while loop to search for a free
sequence number.
If all 63 available sequence numbers are leaked due to transient
hardware timeouts or mailbox failures, the bitmap becomes full.
The next call to acpm_prepare_xfer() would enter an infinite loop.
Fix this by utilizing the kernel's optimized bitmap search functions
(find_next_zero_bit / find_first_zero_bit). If the pool is completely
exhausted, log the failure and return -EBUSY to allow the kernel to
fail gracefully instead of hanging.
Furthermore, drop the allocation loop entirely. Because
acpm_prepare_xfer() is strictly called under the 'tx_lock' mutex,
sequence number allocations are perfectly serialized. If
find_next_zero_bit() locates a free bit, a single
test_and_set_bit_lock() is mathematically guaranteed to succeed.
To enforce this locking invariant, wrap the allocation in a
WARN_ON_ONCE. If the atomic set fails, it indicates the driver's
mutex serialization is fundamentally broken. The warning generates a
stack trace for debugging, while returning -EIO immediately aborts the
transfer to prevent silent payload corruption.
