[ Upstream commit 2790143f09938776a3b4f69685b380bae8fd06c7 ]

As the devm_kcalloc may return NULL pointer,
it should be better to add check for the return
value, as same as the others.

[ Upstream commit 8623ccbfc55d962e19a3537652803676ad7acb90 ]

If device_register() returns error, the name allocated by
dev_set_name() need be freed. As comment of device_register()
says, it should use put_device() to give up the reference in
the error path. So fix this by calling put_device(), then the
name can be freed in kobject_cleanup(), and client_dev is freed
in ntb_transport_client_release().

[ Upstream commit 4c3c796aca02883ad35bb117468938cc4022ca41 ]

A problem about ntb_hw_intel create debugfs failed is triggered with the
following log given:

 [  273.112733] Intel(R) PCI-E Non-Transparent Bridge Driver 2.0
 [  273.115342] debugfs: Directory 'ntb_hw_intel' with parent '/' already present!

The reason is that intel_ntb_pci_driver_init() returns
pci_register_driver() directly without checking its return value, if
pci_register_driver() failed, it returns without destroy the newly created
debugfs, resulting the debugfs of ntb_hw_intel can never be created later.

   # return without destroy debugfs directory

Fix by removing debugfs when pci_register_driver() returns error.

<title>driver core: class: remove struct class_interface * from callbacks</title>

<id>2243acd50ac4026e93ac4f024109be6dbd7f9098</id>
<content type='text'>
The add_dev and remove_dev callbacks in struct class_interface currently
pass in a pointer back to the class_interface structure that is calling
them, but none of the callback implementations actually use this pointer
as it is pointless (the structure is known, the driver passed it in in
the first place if it is really needed again.)

So clean this up and just remove the pointer from the callbacks and fix
up all callback functions.

Support the below BAR configuration methods for epf NTB.

BAR 0: config and scratchpad
BAR 2: doorbell
BAR 4: memory map windows

Set difference BAR number information into struct ntb_epf_data. So difference
VID/PID can choose different BAR configurations. There are difference
BAR map method between epf NTB and epf vNTB Endpoint function.

The call to:

	ret = simple_write_to_buffer(buf, size, offp, ubuf, size);

will return success if it is able to write even one byte to "buf".
The value of "*offp" controls which byte.  This could result in
reading uninitialized data when we do the sscanf() on the next line.

This code is not really desigined to handle partial writes where
*offp is non-zero and the "buf" is preserved and re-used between writes.
Just ban partial writes and replace the simple_write_to_buffer() with
copy_from_user().

When building with Clang we encounter these warnings:
| drivers/ntb/hw/idt/ntb_hw_idt.c:2409:28: error: format specifies type
| 'unsigned char' but the argument has type 'int' [-Werror,-Wformat]
| "\t%hhu-%hhu.\t", idx + cnt - 1);
-
| drivers/ntb/hw/idt/ntb_hw_idt.c:2438:29: error: format specifies type
| 'unsigned char' but the argument has type 'int' [-Werror,-Wformat]
| "\t%hhu-%hhu.\t", idx + cnt - 1);
-
| drivers/ntb/hw/idt/ntb_hw_idt.c:2484:15: error: format specifies type
| 'unsigned char' but the argument has type 'int' [-Werror,-Wformat], src);

For the first two warnings the format specifier used is `%hhu` which
describes a u8. Both `idx` and `cnt` are u8 as well. However, the
expression as a whole is promoted to an int as you cannot get
smaller-than-int from addition. Therefore, to fix the warning, use the
promoted-to-type's format specifier -- in this case `%d`.

example:
``
uint8_t a = 4, b = 7;
int size = sizeof(a + b - 1);
printf("%d\n", size);
// output: 4
```

For the last warning, src is of type `int` while the format specifier
describes a u8. The fix here is just to use the proper specifier `%d`.

See more:
(https://wiki.sei.cmu.edu/confluence/display/c/INT02-C.+Understand+integer+conversion+rules)
"Integer types smaller than int are promoted when an operation is
performed on them. If all values of the original type can be represented
as an int, the value of the smaller type is converted to an int;
otherwise, it is converted to an unsigned int."
