6  * Functions which do automatically cancel operations or release resources upon
7  * driver detach.
8  *
9  * These should be helpful to avoid mixing the manual and devm-based resource
10  * management which can be source of annoying, rarely occurring,
11  * hard-to-reproduce bugs.
12  *
13  * Please take into account that devm based cancellation may be performed some
14  * time after the remove() is ran.
15  *
16  * Thus mixing devm and manual resource management can easily cause problems
17  * when unwinding operations with dependencies. IRQ scheduling a work in a queue
18  * is typical example where IRQs are often devm-managed and WQs are manually
19  * cleaned at remove(). If IRQs are not manually freed at remove() (and this is
20  * often the case when we use devm for IRQs) we have a period of time after
21  * remove() - and before devm managed IRQs are freed - where new IRQ may fire
22  * and schedule a work item which won't be cancelled because remove() was
23  * already ran.
