The ignore_children flag is used only when CONFIG_PM is set, so let's move
it into that section within the struct dev_pm_info.

Move also the corresponding pm_suspend_ignore_children() API out of
device.h into pm_runtime.h, to be consistent with similar APIs.

Unfortunate this causes the Toshiba PCI SD mmc host driver to fail to
compile as it needs pm_runtime.h, so let's fix this here as well.

Allow implementations of the match() callback in struct bus_type to
return errors and if it's -EPROBE_DEFER then queue the device for
deferred probing.

This is useful to buses such as AMBA in which devices are registered
before their matching information can be retrieved from the HW
(typically because a clock driver hasn't probed yet).

This is needed to warn when there is an attempt to change the PM domain

also that we can simplify code quite a bit if we can always assume that.

Using __printf attributes helps to detect several format string issues

rx_frames_per_rates as an array as it really is"), or when the arguments
do not match the format string, c.f.  for example commit 5ce1aca8
("reiserfs: fix __RASSERT format string").

To prevent similar bugs in the future, add a __printf attribute to every
function prototype which needs one in include/linux/ and lib/.  These

We have macros that help reduce the boilerplate for modules
that register with no extra init/exit complexity other than the
most standard use case.  However we see an increasing number of
non-modular drivers using these modular_driver() type register
functions.

There are several downsides to this:
1) The code can appear modular to a reader of the code, and they
   won't know if the code really is modular without checking the
   Makefile and Kconfig to see if compilation is governed by a
   bool or tristate.
2) Coders of drivers may be tempted to code up an __exit function
   that is never used, just in order to satisfy the required three
   args of the modular registration function.
3) Non-modular code ends up including the <module.h> which increases
   CPP overhead that they don't need.
4) It hinders us from performing better separation of the module
   init code and the generic init code.

Here we introduce similar macros, with the mapping from module_driver
to builtin_driver and similar, so that simple changes of:

  module_platform_driver()       --->  builtin_platform_driver()
  module_platform_driver_probe() --->  builtin_platform_driver_probe().

can help us avoid #3 above, without having to code up the same
__init functions and device_initcall() boilerplate.

For non modular code, module_init becomes __initcall.  But direct use
of __initcall is discouraged, vs. one of the priority categorized
subgroups.  As __initcall gets mapped onto device_initcall, our
use of device_initcall directly in this change means that the
runtime impact is zero -- drivers will remain at level 6 in the
initcall ordering.

Some init systems may wish to express the desire to have device drivers
run their probe() code asynchronously. This implements support for this
and allows userspace to request async probe as a preference through a
generic shared device driver module parameter, async_probe.

Implementation for async probe is supported through a module parameter
given that since synchronous probe has been prevalent for years some
userspace might exist which relies on the fact that the device driver
will probe synchronously and the assumption that devices it provides
will be immediately available after this.

Some devices take a long time when initializing, and not all drivers are
suited to initialize their devices when they are open. For example,
input drivers need to interrogate their devices in order to publish
device's capabilities before userspace will open them. When such drivers
are compiled into kernel they may stall entire kernel initialization.

This change allows drivers request for their probe functions to be
called asynchronously during driver and device registration (manual
binding is still synchronous). Because async_schedule is used to perform
asynchronous calls module loading will still wait for the probing to
complete.

Note that the end goal is to make the probing asynchronous by default,
so annotating drivers with PROBE_PREFER_ASYNCHRONOUS is a temporary
measure that allows us to speed up boot process while we validating and
fixing the rest of the drivers and preparing userspace.

This change is based on earlier patch by "Luis R. Rodriguez"

Add a secondary pointer to struct fwnode_handle so as to make it
possible for a device to have two firmware nodes associated with
it at the same time, for example, an ACPI node and a node with
a set of properties provided by platform initialization code.

In the future that will allow device property lookup to fall back
from the primary firmware node to the secondary one if the given
property is not present there to make it easier to provide defaults
for device properties used by device drivers.

Introduce two helper routines, set_primary_fwnode() and
set_secondary_fwnode() allowing callers to add a primary/secondary
firmware node to the given device in such a way that

 (1) If there's only one firmware node for that device, it will be
     pointed to by the device's firmware node pointer.
 (2) If both the primary and secondary firmware nodes are present,
     the primary one will be pointed to by the device's firmware
     node pointer, while the secondary one will be pointed to by the
     primary node's secondary pointer.
 (3) If one of these nodes is removed (by calling one of the new
     nelpers with NULL as the second argument), the other one will
     be preserved.

Make ACPI use set_primary_fwnode() for attaching its firmware nodes
to devices.

In most of cases DMA addresses can be performed using offset value of
Bus address space relatively to physical address space as following:

PFN->DMA:  __pfn_to_phys(pfn + [-]dma_pfn_offset)
DMA->PFN:  __phys_to_pfn(dma_addr) + [-]dma_pfn_offset

Sometimes it's necessary to implement a node which wants to delete
nodes including itself.  This isn't straightforward because of kernfs
active reference.  While a file operation is in progress, an active
reference is held and kernfs_remove() waits for all such references to
drain before completing.  For a self-deleting node, this is a deadlock
as kernfs_remove() ends up waiting for an active reference that itself
is sitting on top of.

This currently is worked around in the sysfs layer using
sysfs_schedule_callback() which makes such removals asynchronous.
While it works, it's rather cumbersome and inherently breaks
synchronicity of the operation - the file operation which triggered
the operation may complete before the removal is finished (or even
started) and the removal may fail asynchronously.  If a removal
operation is immmediately followed by another operation which expects
the specific name to be available (e.g. removal followed by rename
onto the same name), there's no way to make the latter operation
reliable.

The thing is there's no inherent reason for this to be asynchrnous.
All that's necessary to do this synchronous is a dedicated operation
which drops its own active ref and deactivates self.  This patch
implements kernfs_remove_self() and its wrappers in sysfs and driver
core.  kernfs_remove_self() is to be called from one of the file
operations, drops the active ref the task is holding, removes the self
node, and restores active ref to the dead node so that the ref is
balanced afterwards.  __kernfs_remove() is updated so that it takes an
early exit if the target node is already fully removed so that the
active ref restored by kernfs_remove_self() after removal doesn't
confuse the deactivation path.

This makes implementing self-deleting nodes very easy.  The normal
removal path doesn't even need to be changed to use
kernfs_remove_self() for the self-deleting node.  The method can
invoke kernfs_remove_self() on itself before proceeding the normal
removal path.  kernfs_remove() invoked on the node by the normal
deletion path will simply be ignored.

This will replace sysfs_schedule_callback().  A subtle feature of
sysfs_schedule_callback() is that it collapses multiple invocations -
even if multiple removals are triggered, the removal callback is run
only once.  An equivalent effect can be achieved by testing the return
value of kernfs_remove_self() - only the one which gets %true return
value should proceed with actual deletion.  All other instances of
kernfs_remove_self() will wait till the enclosing kernfs operation
which invoked the winning instance of kernfs_remove_self() finishes
and then return %false.  This trivially makes all users of
kernfs_remove_self() automatically show correct synchronous behavior
even when there are multiple concurrent operations - all "echo 1 >
delete" instances will finish only after the whole operation is
completed by one of the instances.

Note that manipulation of active ref is implemented in separate public
functions - kernfs_[un]break_active_protection().
kernfs_remove_self() is the only user at the moment but this will be
used to cater to more complex cases.

v2: For !CONFIG_SYSFS, dummy version kernfs_remove_self() was missing
    and sysfs_remove_file_self() had incorrect return type.  Fix it.
    Reported by kbuild test bot.

v3: kernfs_[un]break_active_protection() separated out from
    kernfs_remove_self() and exposed as public API.
