[ Upstream commit 2a9d50e9ea406e0c8735938484adc20515ef1b47 ]

When the remoteproc starts in parallel with the NGD driver being probed,
or the remoteproc is already up when the PDR lookup is being registered,
or in the theoretical event that we get an interrupt from the hardware,
these callbacks will operate on uninitialized data. This result in
issues to boot the affected boards.

One such example can be seen in the following fault, where
qcom_slim_ngd_ssr_pdr_notify() schedules work on the NULL ngd_up_work.

Move the enablement of interrupts, and the registration of SSR and PDR
until after the NGD device has been registered.

This could be further refined by moving initialization to the control
driver probe and by removing the platform driver model from the picture.

<title>slimbus: Convert to platform remove callback returning void</title>

[ Upstream commit 880b33b0580c8ac9d0202b6e592cb116c99d1b65 ]

The .remove() callback for a platform driver returns an int which makes
many driver authors wrongly assume it's possible to do error handling by
returning an error code. However the value returned is ignored (apart
from emitting a warning) and this typically results in resource leaks.

To improve here there is a quest to make the remove callback return
void. In the first step of this quest all drivers are converted to
.remove_new(), which already returns void. Eventually after all drivers
are converted, .remove_new() will be renamed to .remove().

Trivially convert the slimbus drivers from always returning zero in the
remove callback to the void returning variant.

PDR and SSR callbacks are registred from the controller probe function,
but currently released from the child device's remove function.

The remove() function should only be unwinding what was done in the
same device's probe() function.

qcom_slim_ngd_ctrl_probe() first registers the SSR callback then
allocates the PDR context, as such the error path needs to come in
opposite order to allow us to unroll each step.

[ Upstream commit 8663e8334d7b6007f5d8a4e5dd270246f35107a6 ]

Device drivers should not invoke platform_driver_register()/unregister()
in their probe and remove paths. They should further not rely on
platform_driver_unregister() as their only means of "deleting" their
child devices.

Introduce a helper to unregister the child device and move the
platform_driver_register()/unregister() to module_init()/exit().

<title>slimbus: qcom-ngd-ctrl: Avoid ABBA on tx_lock/ctrl-&gt;lock</title>

<id>urn:sha1:dc4d5c57e012c2c669793deb1515a57bbc6bf5dd</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 55f2ea9ff83cc27a85526b14bc9b32f96a08d6ec upstream.

During the SSR/PDR down notification the tx_lock is taken with the
intent to provide synchronization with active DMA transfers.

But during this period qcom_slim_ngd_down() is invoked, which ends up in
slim_report_absent(), which takes the slim_controller lock. In multiple
other codepaths these two locks are taken in the opposite order (i.e.
slim_controller then tx_lock).

The result is a lockdep splat, and a possible deadlock:

  rprocctl/449 is trying to acquire lock:
  ffff00009793e620 (&amp;ctrl-&gt;lock){+.+.}-{4:4}, at: slim_report_absent (drivers/slimbus/core.c:322) slimbus

  but task is already holding lock:
  ffff00009793fb50 (&amp;ctrl-&gt;tx_lock){+.+.}-{4:4}, at: qcom_slim_ngd_ssr_pdr_notify (drivers/slimbus/qcom-ngd-ctrl.c:1475) slim_qcom_ngd_ctrl

  which lock already depends on the new lock.

  Possible unsafe locking scenario:

        CPU0                    CPU1
        ----                    ----
   lock(&amp;ctrl-&gt;tx_lock);
                                lock(&amp;ctrl-&gt;lock);
                                lock(&amp;ctrl-&gt;tx_lock);
   lock(&amp;ctrl-&gt;lock);

The assumption is that the comment refers to the desire to not call
qcom_slim_ngd_exit_dma() while we have an ongoing DMA TX transaction.
But any such transaction is initiated and completed within a single
qcom_slim_ngd_xfer_msg().

Prior to calling qcom_slim_ngd_exit_dma() the slim_controller is torn
down, all child devices are notified that the slimbus is gone and the
child devices are removed.

Stop taking the tx_lock in qcom_slim_ngd_ssr_pdr_notify() to avoid the
deadlock.

commit 120134fe75c6b0ae38f14eb8b548ad1e5761f912 upstream.

Platform devices created with platform_device_alloc() call
platform_device_release() when the last reference to the device's
kobject is dropped. This function calls of_node_put() unconditionally.
This works fine for devices created with platform_device_register_full()
but users of the split approach (platform_device_alloc() +
platform_device_add()) must bump the reference of the of_node they
assign manually. Add the missing call to of_node_get().

commit 9391380eb91ea5ac792aae9273535c8da5b9aa01 upstream.

Slimbus devices can be allocated dynamically upon reception of
report-present messages.

Make sure to drop the reference taken when looking up already registered
devices.

Note that this requires taking an extra reference in case the device has
not yet been registered and has to be allocated.

commit 96cf8500934e0ce2a6c486f1dbc3b1fff12f7a5e upstream.

The function qcom_slim_ngd_notify_slaves() calls of_slim_get_device() which
internally uses device_find_child() to obtain a device reference.
According to the device_find_child() documentation,
the caller must drop the reference with put_device() after use.

Found via static analysis and this is similar to commit 4e65bda8273c
("ASoC: wcd934x: fix error handling in wcd934x_codec_parse_data()")
