commit 347ab9480313737c0f1aaa08e8f2e1a791235535 upstream.

This patch fixes deadlock warning if removing PWM device
when CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING is enabled.

This issue can be reproceduced by the following steps on
the R-Car H3 Salvator-X board if the backlight is disabled:

 # cd /sys/class/pwm/pwmchip0
 # echo 0 &gt; export
 # ls
 device  export  npwm  power  pwm0  subsystem  uevent  unexport
 # cd device/driver
 # ls
 bind  e6e31000.pwm  uevent  unbind
 # echo e6e31000.pwm &gt; unbind

The sysfs unexport in pwmchip_remove() is completely asymmetric
to what we do in pwmchip_add_with_polarity() and commit 0733424c9ba9
("pwm: Unexport children before chip removal") is a strong indication
that this was wrong to begin with. We should just move
pwmchip_sysfs_unexport() where it belongs, which is right after
pwmchip_sysfs_unexport_children(). In that case, we do not need
separate functions anymore either.

We also really want to remove sysfs irrespective of whether or not
the chip will be removed as a result of pwmchip_remove(). We can only
assume that the driver will be gone after that, so we shouldn't leave
any dangling sysfs files around.

This warning disappears if we move pwmchip_sysfs_unexport() to
the top of pwmchip_remove(), pwmchip_sysfs_unexport_children().
That way it is also outside of the pwm_lock section, which indeed
doesn't seem to be needed.

Moving the pwmchip_sysfs_export() call outside of that section also
seems fine and it'd be perfectly symmetric with pwmchip_remove() again.

So, this patch fixes them.

The sysfs unexport in pwmchip_remove() is completely asymmetric
to what we do in pwmchip_add_with_polarity() and commit 0733424c9ba9
("pwm: Unexport children before chip removal") is a strong indication
that this was wrong to begin with. We should just move
pwmchip_sysfs_unexport() where it belongs, which is right after
pwmchip_sysfs_unexport_children(). In that case, we do not need
separate functions anymore either.

We also really want to remove sysfs irrespective of whether or not
the chip will be removed as a result of pwmchip_remove(). We can only
assume that the driver will be gone after that, so we shouldn't leave
any dangling sysfs files around.

This warning disappears if we move pwmchip_sysfs_unexport() to
the top of pwmchip_remove(), pwmchip_sysfs_unexport_children().
That way it is also outside of the pwm_lock section, which indeed
doesn't seem to be needed.

Moving the pwmchip_sysfs_export() call outside of that section also
seems fine and it'd be perfectly symmetric with pwmchip_remove() again.

So, this patch fixes them.

commit 0733424c9ba9f42242409d1ece780777272f7ea1 upstream.

Exported pwm channels aren't removed before the pwmchip and are
leaked. This results in invalid sysfs files. This fix removes
all exported pwm channels before chip removal.

Before we had the PWM framework we used to have a barebone PWM api. The
HAVE_PWM Kconfig symbol used to be selected by the PWM drivers to specify
the PWM API is present in the kernel. Since the last legacy driver is gone
the HAVE_PWM symbol can go aswell.

Pull PWM changes from Thierry Reding:
 "A new driver has been added to support the PWM mode of the timer
  counter blocks found on Atmel AT91 SoCs.  The VT8500 driver now
  supports changing the PWM signal polarity and the TI drivers (EHRPWM
  and ECAP) gained suspend and resume functionality.

  User drivers can now query the core for whether access to a PWM device
  will sleep (if the PWM chip is on a slow bus such as I2C or SPI).

  The pwm-backlight driver now handles the backlight BL_CORE_FBBLANK
  state in addition to the FB layer's blanking states.

  To round things off, a few fixes and cleanups are also included"

Allow client driver to use of_pwm_get() to get the PWM they need. This
is needed for drivers which handle more than one PWM separately, like
leds-pwm driver, which have:

pwmleds {

	kpad {
		label = "omap4::keypad";
		pwms = &lt;&amp;twl_pwm 0 7812500&gt;;
		max-brightness = &lt;127&gt;;

	charging {

		pwms = &lt;&amp;twl_pwmled 0 7812500&gt;;
		max-brightness = &lt;255&gt;;
