commit 07358194badf73e267289b40b761f5dc56928eab upstream.

Instead of passing an extra bool argument to pm_runtime_release_supplier(),
make its callers take care of triggering a runtime-suspend of the
supplier device as needed.

No expected functional impact.

[ Upstream commit d1579e61192e0e686faa4208500ef4c3b529b16c ]

Because refcount_dec_not_one() returns true if the target refcount
becomes saturated, it is generally unsafe to use its return value as
a loop termination condition, but that is what happens when a device
link's supplier device is released during runtime PM suspend
operations and on device link removal.

To address this, introduce pm_runtime_release_supplier() to be used
in the above cases which will check the supplier device's runtime
PM usage counter in addition to the refcount_dec_not_one() return
value, so the loop can be terminated in case the rpm_active refcount
value becomes invalid, and update the code in question to use it as
appropriate.

This change is not expected to have any visible functional impact.

<title>driver core: Reject pointless SYNC_STATE_ONLY device links</title>

SYNC_STATE_ONLY device links intentionally allow cycles because cyclic
sync_state() dependencies are valid and necessary.

However a SYNC_STATE_ONLY device link where the consumer and the supplier
are the same device is pointless because the device link would be deleted
as soon as the device probes (because it's also the consumer) and won't
affect when the sync_state() callback is called. It's a waste of CPU cycles
and memory to create this device link. So reject any attempts to create
such a device link.

<content type='text'>
If a parent device is also a supplier to a child device, fw_devlink=on by
design delays the probe() of the child device until the probe() of the
parent finishes successfully.

However, some drivers of such parent devices (where parent is also a
supplier) expect the child device to finish probing successfully as soon as
they are added using device_add() and before the probe() of the parent
device has completed successfully. One example of such a case is discussed
in the link mentioned below.

Add a flag to make fw_devlink=on not enforce these supplier-consumer
relationships, so these drivers can continue working.

If a parent device is also a supplier to a child device, fw_devlink=on by
design delays the probe() of the child device until the probe() of the
parent finishes successfully.

However, some drivers of such parent devices (where parent is also a
supplier) expect the child device to finish probing successfully as soon as
they are added using device_add() and before the probe() of the parent
device has completed successfully. One example of such a case is discussed
in the link mentioned below.

Add a flag to make fw_devlink=on not enforce these supplier-consumer
relationships, so these drivers can continue working.

When we have a dependency of the form:

Device-A -&gt; Device-C
	Device-B

Device-C -&gt; Device-B

Where,
* Indentation denotes "child of" parent in previous line.
* X -&gt; Y denotes X is consumer of Y based on firmware (Eg: DT).

We have cyclic dependency: device-A -&gt; device-C -&gt; device-B -&gt; device-A

fw_devlink current treats device-C -&gt; device-B dependency as an invalid
dependency and doesn't enforce it but leaves the rest of the
dependencies as is.

While the current behavior is necessary, it is not sufficient if the
false dependency in this example is actually device-A -&gt; device-C. When
this is the case, device-C will correctly probe defer waiting for
device-B to be added, but device-A will be incorrectly probe deferred by
fw_devlink waiting on device-C to probe successfully. Due to this, none
of the devices in the cycle will end up probing.

To fix this, we need to go relax all the dependencies in the cycle like
we already do in the other instances where fw_devlink detects cycles.
A real world example of this was reported[1] and analyzed[2].

Pull swiotlb updates from Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk:
 "A new feature called restricted DMA pools. It allows SWIOTLB to
  utilize per-device (or per-platform) allocated memory pools instead of
  using the global one.

  The first big user of this is ARM Confidential Computing where the
  memory for DMA operations can be set per platform"

  swiotlb: use depends on for DMA_RESTRICTED_POOL
  of: restricted dma: Don't fail device probe on rmem init failure

  s390/pv: fix the forcing of the swiotlb
  swiotlb: Free tbl memory in swiotlb_exit()
  swiotlb: Emit diagnostic in swiotlb_exit()
  swiotlb: Convert io_default_tlb_mem to static allocation
