Can you please explain why this is long-running? Thanks.

It shouldn't be long-running. update() should only start the transfer to the display. Although if something is not right (the user sets the auto-update frequency to too high), the work could end up waiting for the previous update to finish... It's a debugging feature, so maybe that's not an issue. Tomi

The workqueue auto_update_work is involved in auto updating mode for manual-update displays. omapfb driver uses a delayed work item to update the display at a constant rate. Since these long-running work items aren't involved in memory reclaim in any way, system_long_wq has been used. Work item has been sync cancelled in omapfb_stop_auto_update() which gets called in omapfb_free_resources() to ensure that nothing is pending when the driver is disconnected.
