To support device specific attributes, new common driver function is added.
Eventually those are created on registering the sysfs with common dev attrs.
Furthermore, this patch makes adding device attributes simple in each driver.

LP55xx common driver provides generic firmware interface
for running a LED pattern.
LP5521 and LP5523 have many device attributes for running patterns.
This patch cleans up those complex code.
Removed device attributes:
engine1_mode
engine2_mode
engine3_mode
engine1_load
engine2_load
engine3_load
engine1_leds
engine2_leds
engine3_leds
All device attributes and functions are replaced with two callback functions,
'firmware_cb' and 'run_engine'.
New engine functions:
lp5523_load/stop/run_engine(), lp5523_update_program_memory() and
lp5523_wait_opmode_done()

This patch provides additional device attributes which enable
loading the firmware. ('select_engine' and 'run_engine')
To run a LED pattern, two parts of driver should be enabled.
Common features : lp55xx-common
===============================
Firmware interface for loading LED patterns
Chip specific features : leds-lp5521, leds-lp5523
=================================================
Register addresses for loading firmware data
Register addresses for running selected engine
Pattern programming sequence
============================
LP55xx chips have three program engines.
To load and run a LED pattern, the programming sequence is as follows.
(1) Select an engine number (1/2/3)
(2) Set engine mode to load
(3) Write pattern data into selected area
(4) Set engine mode to run
This sequence is almost same as the firmware interface.
(1) Select an engine number : 'select_engine' dev attribute
(2) Mode change to load : 'loading' of firmware class
(3) Write pattern data into selected area : 'data' of firmware class
(4) Mode change to run : 'run_engine' dev attribute
(1) and (4) are device specific features which provide callback functions
(2) and (3) are common features.
For example,
echo 1 or 2 or 3 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/xxxx/select_engine
echo 1 > /sys/class/firmware/lp5521/loading
echo "4000600040FF6000" > /sys/class/firmware/lp5521/data
echo 0 > /sys/class/firmware/lp5521/loading
echo 1 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/xxxx/run_engine
As soon as 'loading' is set to 0, registered callback is called.
Inside the callback, the selected engine is loaded and memory is updated.
To run programmed pattern, 'run_engine' attribute should be enabled.
Device specific data structure
==============================
o Firmware callback
load selected engine and update program memory
o Run engine
change the engine mode
o 'engine_idx' and firmware data, 'fw'
Those are used in the driver internally with callback functions

LP55xx family chips have internal program memory which run various patterns.
Using this memory, LEDs continue on blinking/dimming without continuous I2C
commands. That means the I2C HOST can be entered into sleep once the memory
is updated.
An application can get hex data from a file and write them into
the program memory through the I2C. This is general firwmare interface.
This patch is the initial step for adding the firmware interface.

LED current is configurable via the sysfs.
Max current is a read-only attribute.
These attributes code can be shared in lp55xx common driver.
Device attributes: 'led_current' and 'max_current'
move to lp55xx common driver
Replaced functions:
show_max_current() => lp55xx_show_max_current()
show_current() => lp55xx_show_current()
store_current() => lp55xx_store_current()
LED setting function: set_led_current()
Current registers are device specific, so configurable function is added
in each driver.

lp5521_set_brightness() and lp5523_set_brightness() are replaced with
common function, lp55xx_set_brightness().
This function is invoked when the brightness of each LED channel is updated.
LP5521 and LP5523 have different register address for the brightness control,
so this work is done by chip specific brightness_work_fn().

LED class devices are registered in lp5521_register_leds() and
lp5523_register_leds().
Two separate functions are merged into consolidated lp55xx function,
lp55xx_register_leds().
Error handling fix:
Unregistering LEDS are handled in lp55xx_register_leds() when LED registration
failure occurs. So each driver error handler is changed to 'err_register_leds'
Chip dependency: 'brightness_work_fn' and 'set_led_current'
To make the structure abstract, both functions are configured in each driver.
Those functions should be done by each driver because register control is
chip-dependant work.

This patch supports basic common driver code for LP5521, LP5523/55231 devices.
( Driver Structure Data )
lp55xx_led and lp55xx_chip
In lp55xx common driver, two different data structure is used.
o lp55xx_led
control multi output LED channels such as led current, channel index.
o lp55xx_chip
general chip control such like the I2C and platform data.
For example, LP5521 has maximum 3 LED channels.
LP5523/55231 has 9 output channels.
lp55xx_chip for LP5521 ... lp55xx_led #1
lp55xx_led #2
lp55xx_led #3
lp55xx_chip for LP5523 ... lp55xx_led #1
lp55xx_led #2
.
.
lp55xx_led #9
( Platform Data )
LP5521 and LP5523/55231 have own specific platform data.
However, this data can be handled with just one platform data structure.
The lp55xx platform data is declared in the header.
This structure is derived from leds-lp5521.h and leds-lp5523.h

leds-lp5521:
When 'lp5521_init_device()' gets failed, error handling should be 'fail1'
rather than 'fail2'.
fail1: releasing platform resource and return code
fail2: releasing allocated LED devices with handling 'fail1'
The 'lp5521_init_device()' is called before creating LED devices.
Thus, 'goto fail1' is proper error handler of this function.

The lp8788-keyled is a platform driver of lp8788-mfd. The platform
device is allocated when mfd_add_devices() is called in lp8788-mfd.
On the other hand, 'lp->dev' is the i2c client device.
Therefore, this 'platform_device' is a proper parent device in case
of resource managed mem alloc, registering led device and device
kernel messages.

The DT binding for the pwm-leds devices are similar to the gpio-leds type.
LEDs are represented as sub-nodes of the pwm-leds device.
The code for handling the DT boot is based on the code found in the
leds-gpio driver and adapted to use PWMs instead of GPIOs.
To avoid having custom cleanup code in case of DT boot the newly created
devm_of_pwm_get() API is used to get the correct PWM instance.
For usage see:

Not removing the report_id from the given buffer adds this byte 2 times

thin_io_hints() is blindly copying the queue limits from the thin-pool
which can lead to incorrect limits being set. The fix here simply
deletes the thin_io_hints() hook which leaves the existing stacking
infrastructure to set the limits correctly.
When a thin-pool uses an MD device for the data device a thin device
from the thin-pool must respect MD's constraints about disallowing a bio
from spanning multiple chunks. Otherwise we can see problems. If the raid0
chunksize is 1152K and thin-pool chunksize is 256K I see the following
md/raid0 error (with extra debug tracing added to thin_endio) when
mkfs.xfs is executed against the thin device:
md/raid0:md99: make_request bug: can't convert block across chunks or bigger than 1152k 6688 127
device-mapper: thin: bio sector=2080 err=-5 bi_size=130560 bi_rw=17 bi_vcnt=32 bi_idx=0
This extra DM debugging shows that the failing bio is spanning across
the first and second logical 1152K chunk (sector 2080 + 255 takes the
bio beyond the first chunk's boundary of sector 2304). So the bio
splitting that DM is doing clearly isn't respecting the MD limits.
max_hw_sectors_kb is 127 for both the thin-pool and thin device
(queue_max_hw_sectors returns 255 so we'll excuse sysfs's lack of
precision). So this explains why bi_size is 130560.
But the thin device's max_hw_sectors_kb should be 4 (PAGE_SIZE) given
that it doesn't have a .merge function (for bio_add_page to consult
indirectly via dm_merge_bvec) yet the thin-pool does sit above an MD
device that has a compulsory merge_bvec_fn. This scenario is exactly
why DM must resort to sending single PAGE_SIZE bios to the underlying
layer. Some additional context for this is available in the header for
commit 8cbeb67a ("dm: avoid unsupported spanning of md stripe boundaries").
Long story short, the reason a thin device doesn't properly get
configured to have a max_hw_sectors_kb of 4 (PAGE_SIZE) is that
thin_io_hints() is blindly copying the queue limits from the thin-pool
device directly to the thin device's queue limits.
Fix this by eliminating thin_io_hints. Doing so is safe because the
block layer's queue limits stacking already enables the upper level thin
device to inherit the thin-pool device's discard and minimum_io_size and
optimal_io_size limits that get set in pool_io_hints. But avoiding the
queue limits copy allows the thin and thin-pool limits to be different
where it is important, namely max_hw_sectors_kb.
