I actually discovered this problem when I was preparing the v2 2/3 patch.

But in the v2 2/3 patch, it tried to add a read-only ctrl, then I just
unset the s_ctrl callback for the new added ctrl, the potential deadlock
is caused by call the s_ctrl back in a locked environment, so after unset
the s_ctrl callback, the 2/3 patch won't trigger the deadlock even if
this patch is missing.

In order to avoid encountering similar problems in the future, that
driver may set or get some ctrl, I added this patch.

Best regards,
Ming
