    i2c: i2c-designware-platdrv: Always use a dynamic adapter number · cd86d140
    Hans de Goede 提交于
    Before this commit the i2c-designware-platdrv assumes that if the pdev
    has an apci-companion it should use a dynamic adapter-nr and it sets
    adapter->nr to -1, otherwise it will use pdev->id as adapter->nr.
    
    There are 3 ways how platform_device-s to which i2c-designware-platdrv
    will bind can be instantiated:
    
    1) Through of / devicetree
    2) Through ACPI enumeration
    3) Explicitly instantiated through platform_device_create + add
    
    1) In case of devicetree-instantiation the drivers/of code always sets
    pdev->id to PLATFORM_DEVID_NONE, which is -1 so in this case both paths
    to set adapter->nr end up doing the same thing.
    
    2) In case of ACPI instantiation the device will always have an
    ACPI-companion, so we are already using dynamic adapter-nrs.
    
    3) There are 2 places manually instantiating a designware_i2c platform_dev:
    drivers/mfd/intel_quark_i2c_gpio.c
    drivers/mfd/intel-lpss.c
    
    In the intel_quark_i2c_gpio.c case pdev->id is always 0, so switching to
    dynamic adapter-nrs here could lead to the bus-number no longer being
    stable, but the quark X1000 only has 1 i2c-controller, which will also
    be assigned bus-number 0 when using dynamic adapter-nrs.
    
    In the intel-lpss.c case intel_lpss_probe() is called from either
    intel-lpss-acpi.c in which case there always is an ACPI-companion, or
    from intel-lpss-pci.c. In most cases devices handled by intel-lpss-pci.c
    also have an ACPI-companion, so we use a dynamic adapter-nr. But in some
    cases the ACPI-companion is missing and we would use pdev->id (allocated
    from intel_lpss_devid_ida). Devices which use the intel-lpss-pci.c code
    typically have many i2c busses, so using pdev->id in this case may lead
    to a bus-number conflict, triggering a WARN(id < 0, "couldn't get idr")
    in i2c-core-base.c causing an oops an the adapter registration to fail.
    So in this case using non dynamic adapter-nrs is actually undesirable.
    
    One machine on which this oops was triggering is the Apollo Lake based
    Acer TravelMate Spin B118.
    
    TL;DR: Switching to always using dynamic adapter-numbers does not make
    any difference in most cases and in the one case where it does make a
    difference the behavior change is desirable because the old behavior
    caused an oops.
