Hi Andrew,

Thanks for sharing your time to review it. Please check my answers inline.

Actually, no. Generally, this function will be called in sleep-able 
context so this code is for an exceptional case handling.

I'll rewrite this code like below:
	if (in_atomic() || irqs_disabled()) {
		dev_dbg(&adapter->dev,
			"xfer in non-sleepable context is not supported\n");
		return -EWOULDBLOCK;
	}

And then, will add a sleep call into the below loop.

I know that in_atomic() call is not recommended in driver code but some 
driver codes still use it since there is no alternative way at this 
time, AFAIK. Please tell me if there is a better solution.

Yes, you are right. I'll rewrite this code like below after adding the 
above change:

		/**
		 * Retry for at least 250ms before returning an error.
		 * Retry interval guideline:
		 *   No minimum < Retry Interval < No maximum
		 *                (recommend 10ms)
		 */
		end = ktime_get();
		elapsed_ms = ktime_to_ms(ktime_sub(end, start));
		if (elapsed_ms >= DEV_PECI_RETRY_TIME_MS) {
			dev_dbg(&adapter->dev, "Timeout retrying xfer!\n");
			rc = -ETIMEDOUT;
			break;
		}

		usleep_range(DEV_PECI_RETRY_INTERVAL_MS * 1000,
			     (DEV_PECI_RETRY_INTERVAL_MS * 1000) + 1000);

I agree. Will rewrite it.

Yes, this is getting the 'die' temperature of a processor package.

Most of these are not simple IOs so ioctl is better suited, I think.

I agree. I will add some permission checks here.
