+	  With this patch, the deadlock will no longer happen but does not
+	  solve the problem that:
+	  T2: will resume activation of the pad, set the pad mode to the target
+	  one (PUSH or PULL) and eventually the streaming lock gets released.
+	  T1: is able to finish calling post_activate() ... but ... the pad
+	  wasn't deactivated (T2 was the last one to "activate" the pad.
