[ Upstream commit b7c0e1ecee403a43abc89eb3e75672b01ff2ece9 ]

The current implementation of the fpga region assumes that the low-level
module registers a driver for the parent device and uses its owner pointer
to take the module's refcount. This approach is problematic since it can
lead to a null pointer dereference while attempting to get the region
during programming if the parent device does not have a driver.

To address this problem, add a module owner pointer to the fpga_region
struct and use it to take the module's refcount. Modify the functions for
registering a region to take an additional owner module parameter and
rename them to avoid conflicts. Use the old function names for helper
macros that automatically set the module that registers the region as the
owner. This ensures compatibility with existing low-level control modules
and reduces the chances of registering a region without setting the owner.

Also, update the documentation to keep it consistent with the new interface
for registering an fpga region.

<title>virtio: store owner from modules with register_virtio_driver()</title>

Modules registering driver with register_virtio_driver() might forget to
set .owner field.  i2c-virtio.c for example has it missing.  The field
is used by some other kernel parts for reference counting
(try_module_get()), so it is expected that drivers will set it.

Solve the problem by moving this task away from the drivers to the core
virtio code, just like we did for platform_driver in
commit 9447057eaff8 ("platform_device: use a macro instead of
platform_driver_register").

Pull gpio updates from Bartosz Golaszewski:
 "The biggest feature is the locking overhaul. Up until now the
  synchronization in the GPIO subsystem was broken. There was a single
  spinlock "protecting" multiple data structures but doing it wrong (as
  evidenced by several places where it would be released when a sleeping
  function was called and then reacquired without checking the protected
  state).

  We tried to use an RW semaphore before but the main issue with GPIO is
  that we have drivers implementing the interfaces in both sleeping and
  non-sleeping ways as well as user-facing interfaces that can be called
  both from process as well as atomic contexts. Both ends converge in
  the same code paths that can use neither spinlocks nor mutexes. The
  only reasonable way out is to use SRCU and go mostly lockless. To that
  end: we add several SRCU structs in relevant places and use them to
  assure consistency between API calls together with atomic reads and
  writes of GPIO descriptor flags where it makes sense.

  This code has spent several weeks in next and has received several
  fixes in the first week or two after which it stabilized nicely. The
  GPIO subsystem is now resilient to providers being suddenly unbound.
  We managed to also remove the existing character device RW semaphore
  and the obsolete global spinlock.

  Other than the locking rework we have one new driver (for Chromebook
  EC), much appreciated documentation improvements from Kent and the
  regular driver improvements, DT-bindings updates and GPIOLIB core
  tweaks.

  Serialization rework:
   - use SRCU to serialize access to the global GPIO device list, to
     GPIO device structs themselves and to GPIO descriptors
   - make the GPIO subsystem resilient to the GPIO providers being
     unbound while the API calls are in progress
   - don't dereference the SRCU-protected chip pointer if the
     information we need can be obtained from the GPIO device structure
   - move some of the information contained in struct gpio_chip to
     struct gpio_device to further reduce the need to dereference the
     former
   - pass the GPIO device struct instead of the GPIO chip to sysfs
     callback to, again, reduce the need for accessing the latter
   - get GPIO descriptors from the GPIO device, not from the chip for
     the same reason
   - allow for mostly lockless operation of the GPIO driver API: assure
     consistency with SRCU and atomic operations
   - remove the global GPIO spinlock
   - remove the character device RW semaphore

  Core GPIOLIB:
   - constify pointers in GPIO API where applicable
   - unify the GPIO counting APIs for ACPI and OF
   - provide a macro for iterating over all GPIOs, not only the ones
     that are requested
   - remove leftover typedefs
   - pass the consumer device to GPIO core in
     devm_fwnode_gpiod_get_index() for improved logging
   - constify the GPIO bus type
   - don't warn about removing GPIO chips with descriptors still held by
     users as we can now handle this situation gracefully
   - remove unused logging helpers
   - unexport functions that are only used internally in the GPIO
     subsystem
   - set the device type (assign the relevant struct device_type) for
     GPIO devices

  New drivers:
   - add the ChromeOS EC GPIO driver

  Driver improvements:
   - allow building gpio-vf610 with COMPILE_TEST as well as disabling it
     in menuconfig (before it was always built for i.MX cofigs)
   - count the number of EICs using the device properties instead of
     hard-coding it in gpio-eic-sprd
   - improve the device naming, extend the debugfs output and add
     lockdep asserts to gpio-sim

  DT bindings:
   - document the 'label' property for gpio-pca9570
   - convert aspeed,ast2400-gpio bindings to DT schema
   - disallow unevaluated properties for gpio-mvebu

Pull gpio updates from Bartosz Golaszewski:
 "The biggest feature is the locking overhaul. Up until now the
  synchronization in the GPIO subsystem was broken. There was a single
  spinlock "protecting" multiple data structures but doing it wrong (as
  evidenced by several places where it would be released when a sleeping
  function was called and then reacquired without checking the protected
  state).

  We tried to use an RW semaphore before but the main issue with GPIO is
  that we have drivers implementing the interfaces in both sleeping and
  non-sleeping ways as well as user-facing interfaces that can be called
  both from process as well as atomic contexts. Both ends converge in
  the same code paths that can use neither spinlocks nor mutexes. The
  only reasonable way out is to use SRCU and go mostly lockless. To that
  end: we add several SRCU structs in relevant places and use them to
  assure consistency between API calls together with atomic reads and
  writes of GPIO descriptor flags where it makes sense.

  This code has spent several weeks in next and has received several
  fixes in the first week or two after which it stabilized nicely. The
  GPIO subsystem is now resilient to providers being suddenly unbound.
  We managed to also remove the existing character device RW semaphore
  and the obsolete global spinlock.

  Other than the locking rework we have one new driver (for Chromebook
  EC), much appreciated documentation improvements from Kent and the
  regular driver improvements, DT-bindings updates and GPIOLIB core
  tweaks.

  Serialization rework:
   - use SRCU to serialize access to the global GPIO device list, to
     GPIO device structs themselves and to GPIO descriptors
   - make the GPIO subsystem resilient to the GPIO providers being
     unbound while the API calls are in progress
   - don't dereference the SRCU-protected chip pointer if the
     information we need can be obtained from the GPIO device structure
   - move some of the information contained in struct gpio_chip to
     struct gpio_device to further reduce the need to dereference the
     former
   - pass the GPIO device struct instead of the GPIO chip to sysfs
     callback to, again, reduce the need for accessing the latter
   - get GPIO descriptors from the GPIO device, not from the chip for
     the same reason
   - allow for mostly lockless operation of the GPIO driver API: assure
     consistency with SRCU and atomic operations
   - remove the global GPIO spinlock
   - remove the character device RW semaphore

  Core GPIOLIB:
   - constify pointers in GPIO API where applicable
   - unify the GPIO counting APIs for ACPI and OF
   - provide a macro for iterating over all GPIOs, not only the ones
     that are requested
   - remove leftover typedefs
   - pass the consumer device to GPIO core in
     devm_fwnode_gpiod_get_index() for improved logging
   - constify the GPIO bus type
   - don't warn about removing GPIO chips with descriptors still held by
     users as we can now handle this situation gracefully
   - remove unused logging helpers
   - unexport functions that are only used internally in the GPIO
     subsystem
   - set the device type (assign the relevant struct device_type) for
     GPIO devices

  New drivers:
   - add the ChromeOS EC GPIO driver

  Driver improvements:
   - allow building gpio-vf610 with COMPILE_TEST as well as disabling it
     in menuconfig (before it was always built for i.MX cofigs)
   - count the number of EICs using the device properties instead of
     hard-coding it in gpio-eic-sprd
   - improve the device naming, extend the debugfs output and add
     lockdep asserts to gpio-sim

  DT bindings:
   - document the 'label' property for gpio-pca9570
   - convert aspeed,ast2400-gpio bindings to DT schema
   - disallow unevaluated properties for gpio-mvebu
   - document a new model in renesas,rcar-gpio

  Documentation:
   - improve the character device kerneldocs in user-space headers
   - add proper documentation for the character device uAPI (both v1 and v2)
   - move the sysfs and gpio-mockup docs into the "obsolete" section
   - improve naming consistency for GPIO terms
   - clarify the line values description for sysfs
   - minor docs improvements
   - improve the driver API contract for setting GPIO direction
   - mark unsafe APIs as deprecated in kerneldocs and suggest
     replacements

   - remove an obsolete test from selftests"
