commit 0462c56c290a99a7f03e817ae5b843116dfb575c upstream.

The commit 80dd33cf72d1 ("drivers: base: Fix device link removal")
introduces a workqueue to release the consumer and supplier devices used
in the devlink.
In the job queued, devices are release and in turn, when all the
references to these devices are dropped, the release function of the
device itself is called.

Nothing is present to provide some synchronisation with this workqueue
in order to ensure that all ongoing releasing operations are done and
so, some other operations can be started safely.

For instance, in the following sequence:
  1) of_platform_depopulate()
  2) of_overlay_remove()

During the step 1, devices are released and related devlinks are removed
(jobs pushed in the workqueue).
During the step 2, OF nodes are destroyed but, without any
synchronisation with devlink removal jobs, of_overlay_remove() can raise
warnings related to missing of_node_put():
  ERROR: memory leak, expected refcount 1 instead of 2

Indeed, the missing of_node_put() call is going to be done, too late,
from the workqueue job execution.

Introduce device_link_wait_removal() to offer a way to synchronize
operations waiting for the end of devlink removals (i.e. end of
workqueue jobs).
Also, as a flushing operation is done on the workqueue, the workqueue
used is moved from a system-wide workqueue to a local one.

<title>driver core: fw_devlink: Improve detection of overlapping cycles</title>

[ Upstream commit 6442d79d880cf7a2fff18779265d657fef0cce4c ]

fw_devlink can detect most overlapping/intersecting cycles. However it was
missing a few corner cases because of an incorrect optimization logic that
tries to avoid repeating cycle detection for devices that are already
marked as part of a cycle.

Here's an example provided by Xu Yang (edited for clarity):

                    usb
                  +-----+
   tcpc           |     |
  +-----+         |  +--|
  |     |-----------&gt;|EP|
  |--+  |         |  +--|
  |EP|&lt;-----------|     |
  |--+  |         |  B  |
  |     |         +-----+
  |  A  |            |
  +-----+            |
     ^     +-----+   |
     |     |     |   |
     +-----|  C  |&lt;--+
           |     |
           +-----+
           usb-phy

Node A (tcpc) will be populated as device 1-0050.
Node B (usb) will be populated as device 38100000.usb.
Node C (usb-phy) will be populated as device 381f0040.usb-phy.

The description below uses the notation:
consumer --&gt; supplier
child ==&gt; parent

1. Node C is populated as device C. No cycles detected because cycle
   detection is only run when a fwnode link is converted to a device link.

2. Node B is populated as device B. As we convert B --&gt; C into a device
   link we run cycle detection and find and mark the device link/fwnode
   link cycle:
   C--&gt; A --&gt; B.EP ==&gt; B --&gt; C

3. Node A is populated as device A. As we convert C --&gt; A into a device
   link, we see it's already part of a cycle (from step 2) and don't run
   cycle detection. Thus we miss detecting the cycle:
   A --&gt; B.EP ==&gt; B --&gt; A.EP ==&gt; A

Looking at it another way, A depends on B in one way:
A --&gt; B.EP ==&gt; B

But B depends on A in two ways and we only detect the first:
B --&gt; C --&gt; A
B --&gt; A.EP ==&gt; A

To detect both of these, we remove the incorrect optimization attempt in
step 3 and run cycle detection even if the fwnode link from which the
device link is being created has already been marked as part of a cycle.

commit 7fddac12c38237252431d5b8af7b6d5771b6d125 upstream.

device_link_flag_is_sync_state_only() correctly returns true on the flags
of an existing device link that only implements sync_state() functionality.
However, it incorrectly and confusingly returns false if it's called with
DL_FLAG_SYNC_STATE_ONLY.

This bug doesn't manifest in any of the existing calls to this function,
but fix this confusing behavior to avoid future bugs.

[ Upstream commit 699fb50d99039a50e7494de644f96c889279aca3 ]

In the current code, devres_release_all() only gets called if the device
has a bus and has been probed.

This leads to issues when using bus-less or driver-less devices where
the device might never get freed if a managed resource holds a reference
to the device. This is happening in the DRM framework for example.

We should thus call devres_release_all() in the device_del() function to
make sure that the device-managed actions are properly executed when the
device is unregistered, even if it has neither a bus nor a driver.

This is effectively the same change than commit 2f8d16a996da ("devres:
release resources on device_del()") that got reverted by commit
a525a3ddeaca ("driver core: free devres in device_release") over
memory leaks concerns.

This patch effectively combines the two commits mentioned above to
release the resources both on device_del() and device_release() and get
the best of both worlds.

fw_devlink can sometimes try to create a device link with the consumer
and supplier as the same device. These attempts will fail (correctly),
but are harmless. So, avoid printing an error for these cases. Also, add
more detail to the error message.

[ Upstream commit 3fb16866b51ded6c016b664caad53f8d4fd9dc56 ]

fw_devlink could only detect a single and simple cycle because it relied
mainly on device link cycle detection code that only checked for cycles
between devices. The expectation was that the firmware wouldn't have
complicated cycles and multiple cycles between devices. That expectation
has been proven to be wrong.

For example, fw_devlink could handle:

+-+        +-+
|A+------&gt; |B+
+-+        +++
 ^          |
 |          |
 +----------+

But it couldn't handle even something as "simple" as:

 +---------------------+
 |                     |
 v                     |
+-+        +-+        +++
|A+------&gt; |B+------&gt; |C|
+-+        +++        +-+
 ^          |
 |          |
 +----------+

But firmware has even more complicated cycles like:

    +---------------------+
    |                     |
    v                     |
   +-+       +---+       +++
+--+A+------&gt;| B +-----&gt; |C|&lt;--+
|  +-+       ++--+       +++   |
|   ^         | ^         |    |
|   |         | |         |    |
|   +---------+ +---------+    |
|                              |
+------------------------------+

And this is without including parent child dependencies or nodes in the
cycle that are just firmware nodes that'll never have a struct device
created for them.

The proper way to treat these devices it to not force any probe ordering
between them, while still enforce dependencies between node in the
cycles (A, B and C) and their consumers.

So this patch goes all out and just deals with all types of cycles. It
does this by:

1. Following dependencies across device links, parent-child and fwnode
   links.
2. When it find cycles, it mark the device links and fwnode links as
   such instead of just deleting them or making the indistinguishable
   from proxy SYNC_STATE_ONLY device links.

This way, when new nodes get added, we can immediately find and mark any
new cycles whether the new node is a device or firmware node.

fw_devlink shouldn't defer the probe of a device to wait on a supplier
that'll never have a struct device or will never be probed by a driver.
We currently check if a supplier falls into this category, but don't
check its ancestors. We need to check the ancestors too because if the
ancestor will never probe, then the supplier will never probe either.

[ Upstream commit 3a2dbc510c437ca392516b0105bad8e7970e6614 ]

When a device X is bound successfully to a driver, if it has a child
firmware node Y that doesn't have a struct device created by then, we
delete fwnode links where the child firmware node Y is the supplier. We
did this to avoid blocking the consumers of the child firmware node Y
from deferring probe indefinitely.

While that a step in the right direction, it's better to make the
consumers of the child firmware node Y to be consumers of the device X
because device X is probably implementing whatever functionality is
represented by child firmware node Y. By doing this, we capture the
device dependencies more accurately and ensure better
probe/suspend/resume ordering.
