The module driver specific code should belong in the driver core, not in

for some struct device_driver rework that should be confined to the

This also lets us keep from exporting these functions, as no external
code should ever be calling it.

devres: device resource management

Implement device resource management, in short, devres. A device
driver can allocate arbirary size of devres data which is associated
with a release function. On driver detach, release function is
invoked on the devres data, then, devres data is freed.

devreses are typed by associated release functions. Some devreses are
better represented by single instance of the type while others need
multiple instances sharing the same release function. Both usages are
supported.

devreses can be grouped using devres group such that a device driver
can easily release acquired resources halfway through initialization
or selectively release resources (e.g. resources for port 1 out of 4
ports).

This patch adds devres core including documentation and the following
managed interfaces.

* alloc/free : devm_kzalloc(), devm_kzfree()
* IO region : devm_request_region(), devm_release_region()
* IRQ : devm_request_irq(), devm_free_irq()
* DMA : dmam_alloc_coherent(), dmam_free_coherent(),
dmam_declare_coherent_memory(), dmam_pool_create(),
dmam_pool_destroy()
* PCI : pcim_enable_device(), pcim_pin_device(), pci_is_managed()
* iomap : devm_ioport_map(), devm_ioport_unmap(), devm_ioremap(),
devm_ioremap_nocache(), devm_iounmap(), pcim_iomap_table(),
pcim_iomap(), pcim_iounmap()

[PATCH] drivers/base - fix sparse warnings

There are a number of sparse warnings from the latest sparse
snapshot being generated from the drivers/base build. The
main culprits are due to the initialisation functions not
being declared in a header file.

Also, the firmware.c file should include <linux/device.h>
to get the prototype of firmware_register() and
firmware_unregister().

This patch moves the init function declerations from the
init.c file to the base.h, and ensures it is included in
all the relevant c sources. It also adds <linux/device.h>
to the included headers for firmware.c.

The patch does not solve all the sparse errors generated,
but reduces the count significantly.

[PATCH] driver core: Add the ability to bind drivers to devices from userspace

This adds a single file, "bind", to the sysfs directory of every driver
registered with the driver core. To bind a device to a driver, write
the bus id of the device you wish to bind to that specific driver to the
"bind" file (remember to not add a trailing \n). If that bus id matches
a device on that bus, and it does not currently have a driver bound to
it, the probe sequence will be initiated with that driver and device.

Note, this requires that the driver itself be willing and able to accept
that device (usually through a device id type table). This patch does
not make it possible to override the driver's id table.

driver core: Don't do deferred probe in parallel with kernel_init thread

The current deferred probe implementation can mess up suspend/resume
ordering if deferred probe thread is kicked off in parallel with the
main initcall thread (kernel_init thread) [1].

For example:

Say device-B is a consumer of device-A.

Initcall thread Deferred probe thread
=============== =====================
1. device-A is added.
2. device-B is added.
3. dpm_list is now [device-A, device-B].
4. driver-A defers probe of device-A.
5. device-A is moved to
end of dpm_list
6. dpm_list is now
[device-B, device-A]
7. driver-B is registereed and probes device-B.
8. dpm_list stays as [device-B, device-A].

The reverse order of dpm_list is used for suspend. So in this case
device-A would incorrectly get suspended before device-B.

Commit 716a7a259690 ("driver core: fw_devlink: Add support for batching
fwnode parsing") kicked off the deferred probe thread early during boot
to run in parallel with the initcall thread and caused suspend/resume
regressions. This patch removes the parallel run of the deferred probe
thread to avoid the suspend/resume regressions.

The amount of time spent parsing fwnodes of devices can become really

O(N^2) when N devices are added. But this can be optimized to O(N) by
adding all the devices and then parsing all their fwnodes in one batch.
