Merge tag 'driver-core-6.2-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core
Pull driver core updates from Greg KH: "Here is the set of driver core and kernfs changes for 6.2-rc1.
The "big" change in here is the addition of a new macro, container_of_const() that will preserve the "const-ness" of a pointer passed into it.
The "problem" of the current container_of() macro is that if you pass in a "const *", out of it can comes a non-const pointer unless you specifically ask for it. For many usages, we want to preserve the "const" attribute by using the same call. For a specific example, this series changes the kobj_to_dev() macro to use it, allowing it to be used no matter what the const value is. This prevents every subsystem from having to declare 2 different individual macros (i.e. kobj_const_to_dev() and kobj_to_dev()) and having the compiler enforce the const value at build time, which having 2 macros would not do either.
The driver for all of this have been discussions with the Rust kernel developers as to how to properly mark driver core, and kobject, objects as being "non-mutable". The changes to the kobject and driver core in this pull request are the result of that, as there are lots of paths where kobjects and device pointers are not modified at all, so marking them as "const" allows the compiler to enforce this.
So, a nice side affect of the Rust development effort has been already to clean up the driver core code to be more obvious about object rules.
All of this has been bike-shedded in quite a lot of detail on lkml with different names and implementations resulting in the tiny version we have in here, much better than my original proposal. Lots of subsystem maintainers have acked the changes as well.
Other than this change, included in here are smaller stuff like:
- kernfs fixes and updates to handle lock contention better
- vmlinux.lds.h fixes and updates
- sysfs and debugfs documentation updates
- device property updates
All of these have been in the linux-next tree for quite a while with no problems"

kernfs: Replace global kernfs_open_file_mutex with hashed mutexes.
In current kernfs design a single mutex, kernfs_open_file_mutex, protects the list of kernfs_open_file instances corresponding to a sysfs attribute. So even if different tasks are opening or closing different sysfs files they can contend on osq_lock of this mutex. The contention is more apparent in large scale systems with few hundred CPUs where most of the CPUs have running tasks that are opening, accessing or closing sysfs files at any point of time.
Using hashed mutexes in place of a single global mutex, can significantly reduce contention around global mutex and hence can provide better scalability. Moreover as these hashed mutexes are not part of kernfs_node objects we will not see any singnificant change in memory utilization of kernfs based file systems like sysfs, cgroupfs etc.
Modify interface introduced in previous patch to make use of hashed mutexes. Use kernfs_node address as hashing key.
