commit 654888327e9f655a9d55ad477a9583e90e8c9b5c upstream.

Commit 3451a495ef24 ("driver core: Establish order of operations for
device_add and device_del via bitflag") sought to prevent asynchronous
driver binding to a device which is being removed.  It added a
per-device "dead" flag which is checked in the following code paths:

* asynchronous binding in __driver_attach_async_helper()
*  synchronous binding in device_driver_attach()
* asynchronous binding in __device_attach_async_helper()

It did *not* check the flag upon:

*  synchronous binding in __device_attach()

However __device_attach() may also be called asynchronously from:

deferred_probe_work_func()
  bus_probe_device()
    device_initial_probe()
      __device_attach()

So if the commit's intention was to check the "dead" flag in all
asynchronous code paths, then a check is also necessary in
__device_attach().  Add the missing check.

commit b292b50b0efcc7095d8bf15505fba6909bb35dce upstream.

syzbot is reporting hung task in wait_for_device_probe() [1]. At least,
we always need to decrement probe_count if we incremented probe_count in
really_probe().

However, since I can't find "Resources present before probing" message in
the console log, both "this message simply flowed off" and "syzbot is not
hitting this path" will be possible. Therefore, while we are at it, let's
also prepare for concurrent wait_for_device_probe() calls by replacing
wake_up() with wake_up_all().

<title>driver core: Ensure wait_for_device_probe() waits until the deferred_probe_timeout fires</title>

In commit c8c43cee29f6 ("driver core: Fix
driver_deferred_probe_check_state() logic"), we set the default
driver_deferred_probe_timeout value to 30 seconds to allow for
drivers that are missing dependencies to have some time so that
the dependency may be loaded from userland after initcalls_done
is set.

However, Yoshihiro Shimoda reported that on his device that
expects to have unmet dependencies (due to "optional links" in
its devicetree), was failing to mount the NFS root.

In digging further, it seemed the problem was that while the
device properly probes after waiting 30 seconds for any missing
modules to load, the ip_auto_config() had already failed,
resulting in NFS to fail. This was due to ip_auto_config()
calling wait_for_device_probe() which doesn't wait for the
driver_deferred_probe_timeout to fire.

This patch tries to fix the issue by creating a waitqueue
for the driver_deferred_probe_timeout, and calling wait_event()
to make sure driver_deferred_probe_timeout is zero in
wait_for_device_probe() to make sure all the probing is
finished.

The downside to this solution is that kernel functionality that
uses wait_for_device_probe(), will block until the
driver_deferred_probe_timeout fires, regardless of if there is
any missing dependencies.

However, the previous patch reverts the default timeout value to
zero, so this side-effect will only affect users who specify a
driver_deferred_probe_timeout= value as a boot argument, where
the additional delay would be beneficial to allow modules to
load later during boot.

Thanks to Geert for chasing down that ip_auto_config was why NFS
was failing in this case!

<title>driver core: Use dev_warn() instead of dev_WARN() for deferred_probe_timeout warnings</title>

In commit c8c43cee29f6 ("driver core: Fix
driver_deferred_probe_check_state() logic") and following
changes the logic was changes slightly so that if there is no
driver to match whats found in the dtb, we wait the sepcified
seconds for modules to be loaded by userland, and then timeout,
where as previously we'd print "ignoring dependency for device,
assuming no driver" and immediately return -ENODEV after
initcall_done.

However, in the timeout case (which previously existed but was
practicaly un-used without a boot argument), the timeout message
uses dev_WARN(). This means folks are now seeing a big backtrace
in their boot logs if there a entry in their dts that doesn't
have a driver.

To fix this, lets use dev_warn(), instead of dev_WARN() to match
the previous error path.

<content type='text'>
This patch addresses a regression in 5.7-rc1+

In commit c8c43cee29f6 ("driver core: Fix
driver_deferred_probe_check_state() logic"), we both cleaned up
the logic and also set the default driver_deferred_probe_timeout
value to 30 seconds to allow for drivers that are missing
dependencies to have some time so that the dependency may be
loaded from userland after initcalls_done is set.

However, Yoshihiro Shimoda reported that on his device that
expects to have unmet dependencies (due to "optional links" in
its devicetree), was failing to mount the NFS root.

In digging further, it seemed the problem was that while the
device properly probes after waiting 30 seconds for any missing
modules to load, the ip_auto_config() had already failed,
resulting in NFS to fail. This was due to ip_auto_config()
calling wait_for_device_probe() which doesn't wait for the
driver_deferred_probe_timeout to fire.

Fixing that issue is possible, but could also introduce 30
second delays in bootups for users who don't have any
missing dependencies, which is not ideal.

So I think the best solution to avoid any regressions is to
revert back to a default timeout value of zero, and allow
systems that need to utilize the timeout in order for userland
to load any modules that supply misisng dependencies in the dts
to specify the timeout length via the exiting documented boot
argument.

Thanks to Geert for chasing down that ip_auto_config was why NFS
was failing in this case!

This patch addresses a regression in 5.7-rc1+

In commit c8c43cee29f6 ("driver core: Fix
driver_deferred_probe_check_state() logic"), we both cleaned up
the logic and also set the default driver_deferred_probe_timeout
value to 30 seconds to allow for drivers that are missing
dependencies to have some time so that the dependency may be
loaded from userland after initcalls_done is set.

However, Yoshihiro Shimoda reported that on his device that
expects to have unmet dependencies (due to "optional links" in
its devicetree), was failing to mount the NFS root.

In digging further, it seemed the problem was that while the
device properly probes after waiting 30 seconds for any missing
modules to load, the ip_auto_config() had already failed,
resulting in NFS to fail. This was due to ip_auto_config()
calling wait_for_device_probe() which doesn't wait for the
driver_deferred_probe_timeout to fire.

Fixing that issue is possible, but could also introduce 30
second delays in bootups for users who don't have any
missing dependencies, which is not ideal.

So I think the best solution to avoid any regressions is to
revert back to a default timeout value of zero, and allow
systems that need to utilize the timeout in order for userland
to load any modules that supply misisng dependencies in the dts
to specify the timeout length via the exiting documented boot
argument.

Thanks to Geert for chasing down that ip_auto_config was why NFS
was failing in this case!

There is a place in the code where open-coded version of list entry accessors
list_last_entry() is used.

Replace that with the standard macro.

Between printing the debug message and actual check atomic counter can be
altered. For better debugging experience read atomic counter value only once.

Since other subsystems (like regulator) have similar arbitrary
timeouts for how long they try to resolve driver dependencies,
rename deferred_probe_timeout to driver_deferred_probe_timeout
and set it as global, so it can be shared.

remove it and simplify some of the logic.

<title>driver core: Set deferred_probe_timeout to a longer default if CONFIG_MODULES is set</title>

When using modules, its common for the modules not to be loaded
until quite late by userland. With the current code,
driver_deferred_probe_check_state() will stop returning
EPROBE_DEFER after late_initcall, which can cause module
dependency resolution to fail after that.

So allow a longer window of 30 seconds (picked somewhat
arbitrarily, but influenced by the similar regulator core
timeout value) in the case where modules are enabled.
