Pull driver core fixes from Danilo Krummrich:

 - Generalize driver_override in the driver core, providing a common
   sysfs implementation and concurrency-safe accessors for bus
   implementations

 - Do not use driver_override as IRQ name in the hwmon axi-fan driver

 - Remove an unnecessary driver_override check in sh platform_early

 - Migrate the platform bus to use the generic driver_override
   infrastructure, fixing a UAF condition caused by accessing the
   driver_override field without proper locking in the platform_match()
   callback

<content type='text'>
When a driver is probed through __driver_attach(), the bus' match()
callback is called without the device lock held, thus accessing the
driver_override field without a lock, which can cause a UAF.

Fix this by using the driver-core driver_override infrastructure taking
care of proper locking internally.

Note that calling match() from __driver_attach() without the device lock
held is intentional. [1]

<content type='text'>
Currently, there are 12 busses (including platform and PCI) that
duplicate the driver_override logic for their individual devices.

All of them seem to be prone to the bug described in [1].

While this could be solved for every bus individually using a separate
lock, solving this in the driver-core generically results in less (and
cleaner) changes overall.

Thus, move driver_override to struct device, provide corresponding
accessors for busses and handle locking with a separate lock internally.

In particular, add device_set_driver_override(),
device_has_driver_override(), device_match_driver_override() and
generalize the sysfs store() and show() callbacks via a driver_override
feature flag in struct bus_type.

Until all busses have migrated, keep driver_set_override() in place.

Note that we can't use the device lock for the reasons described in [2].

The following code in pm_runtime_work() may dereference the dev-&gt;parent
pointer after the parent device has been freed:

	/* Maybe the parent is now able to suspend. */
	if (parent &amp;&amp; !parent-&gt;power.ignore_children) {
		spin_unlock(&amp;dev-&gt;power.lock);

		spin_lock(&amp;parent-&gt;power.lock);
		rpm_idle(parent, RPM_ASYNC);
		spin_unlock(&amp;parent-&gt;power.lock);

		spin_lock(&amp;dev-&gt;power.lock);
	}

Fix this by inserting a flush_work() call in pm_runtime_remove().

Without this patch blktest block/001 triggers the following complaint
sporadically:

<title>regmap: Synchronize cache for the page selector</title>

<id>09e70e4f119ff650d24c96161fd2f62ac7e424b0</id>
<content type='text'>
If the selector register is represented in each page, its value
according to the debugfs is stale because it gets synchronized
only after the real page switch happens. Hence the regmap cache
initialisation from the HW inherits outdated data in the selector
register.

Synchronize cache for the page selector just in time.

Before (offset followed by hexdump, the first byte is selector):

    // Real registers
    18: 05 ff 00 00 ff 0f 00 00 f0 00 00 00
    ...
    // Virtual (per port)
    40: 05 ff 00 00 e0 e0 00 00 00 00 00 1f
    50: 00 ff 00 00 e0 e0 00 00 00 00 00 1f
    60: 01 ff 00 00 ff ff 00 00 00 00 00 00
    70: 02 ff 00 00 cf f3 00 00 00 00 00 0c
    80: 03 ff 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ff
    90: 04 ff 00 00 ff 0f 00 00 f0 00 00 00

After:

    // Real registers
    18: 05 ff 00 00 ff 0f 00 00 f0 00 00 00
    ...
    // Virtual (per port)

If the selector register is represented in each page, its value
according to the debugfs is stale because it gets synchronized
only after the real page switch happens. Hence the regmap cache
initialisation from the HW inherits outdated data in the selector
register.

Synchronize cache for the page selector just in time.

Before (offset followed by hexdump, the first byte is selector):

<title>Revert "driver core: enforce device_lock for driver_match_device()"</title>

<id>9de68394a61528d40f575c3e6719cc75c56f62c3</id>
<content type='text'>
This reverts commit dc23806a7c47 ("driver core: enforce device_lock for
driver_match_device()") and commit 289b14592cef ("driver core: fix
inverted "locked" suffix of driver_match_device()").

While technically correct, there is a major downside to this approach:

When a device is already present in the system and a driver is
registered on the same bus, we iterate over all devices registered on
this bus to see if one of them matches. If we come across an already
bound one where the corresponding driver crashed while holding the
device lock (e.g. in probe()) we can't make any progress anymore.

However, drivers are typically the least tested code in the kernel and
hence it is a case that is likely to happen regularly. Besides hurting
developer ergonomics, it potentially decreases chances of shutting
things down cleanly and obtaining logs in production environments as
well [1].

This came up in the context of a firewire bug, which only in combination
with the reverted commit, caused the machine to hang [2]. Additionally,
it was observed in [3].

Thus, revert commit dc23806a7c47 ("driver core: enforce device_lock for
driver_match_device()") and add a brief note clarifying that an
implementer of struct bus_type must not expect match() to be called with
the device lock held.

<title>device property: Allow secondary lookup in fwnode_get_next_child_node()</title>

<id>2692c614f8f05929d692b3dbfd3faef1f00fbaf0</id>
<content type='text'>
When device_get_child_node_count() got split to the fwnode and device
respective APIs, the fwnode didn't inherit the ability to traverse over
the secondary fwnode. Hence any user, that switches from device to fwnode
API misses this feature. In particular, this was revealed by the commit
1490cbb9dbfd ("device property: Split fwnode_get_child_node_count()")
that effectively broke the GPIO enumeration on Intel Galileo boards.
Fix this by moving the secondary lookup from device to fwnode API.

Note, in general no device_*() API should go into the depth of the fwnode
implementation.

<title>Convert more 'alloc_obj' cases to default GFP_KERNEL arguments</title>

This converts some of the visually simpler cases that have been split
over multiple lines.  I only did the ones that are easy to verify the
resulting diff by having just that final GFP_KERNEL argument on the next
line.

Somebody should probably do a proper coccinelle script for this, but for
me the trivial script actually resulted in an assertion failure in the
middle of the script.  I probably had made it a bit _too_ trivial.

So after fighting that far a while I decided to just do some of the
syntactically simpler cases with variations of the previous 'sed'
scripts.

The more syntactically complex multi-line cases would mostly really want
whitespace cleanup anyway.
