commit 7f5dcaf1fdf289767a126a0a5cc3ef39b5254b06 upstream.

The unregister path of platform_device is broken. On registration, it
will register all resources with either a parent already set, or
type==IORESOURCE_{IO,MEM}. However, on unregister it will release
everything with type==IORESOURCE_{IO,MEM}, but ignore the others. There
are also cases where resources don't get registered in the first place,
like with devices created by of_platform_populate()*.

Fix the unregister path to be symmetrical with the register path by
checking the parent pointer instead of the type field to decide which
resources to unregister. This is safe because the upshot of the
registration path algorithm is that registered resources have a parent
pointer, and non-registered resources do not.

* It can be argued that of_platform_populate() should be registering
  it's resources, and they argument has some merit. However, there are
  quite a few platforms that end up broken if we try to do that due to
  overlapping resources in the device tree. Until that is fixed, we need
  to solve the immediate problem.

compared to the most powerful and already existing helper (namely
platform_device_register_resndata) this allows to specify a dma_mask.
To make eventual extensions later more easy, a struct holding the used
information is created instead of passing the information by function
parameters.

If id_entry is available then it is used. However if we remove first the
driver followed by the device, then the id_entry is pointing to driver's
memory which is long gone.
Since id-&gt;name and plat-&gt;name are equal there is no point in
distinguishing them.

<title>driver core: Add ability for arch code to setup pdev_archdata</title>

<id>a77ce8167cc1d0370fcb1d79b367d62e050cb2b0</id>
<content type='text'>
On some architectures we need to setup pdev_archdata before we add the
device.  Waiting til a bus_notifier is too late since we might need the
pdev_archdata in the bus notifier.  One example is setting up of dma_mask
pointers such that it can be used in a bus_notifier.

We add weak noop version of arch_setup_pdev_archdata() and allow the arch
code to override with access the full definitions of struct device,
struct platform_device, and struct pdev_archdata.
