Pull driver core updates from Greg KH:
 "Here is the set of driver core patches for 5.8-rc1.

  Not all that huge this release, just a number of small fixes and
  updates:

   - software node fixes

   - kobject now sends KOBJ_REMOVE when it is removed from sysfs, not
     when it is removed from memory (which could come much later)

   - device link additions and fixes based on testing on more devices

   - firmware core cleanups

   - other minor changes, full details in the shortlog

  All have been in linux-next for a while with no reported issues"

<title>driver core: Update device link status correctly for SYNC_STATE_ONLY links</title>
<updated>2020-05-27T10:20:47+00:00</updated>
<author>
<name>Saravana Kannan</name>
<email>saravanak@google.com</email>
</author>
<published>2020-05-26T22:09:27+00:00</published>
<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.tavy.me/linux.git/commit/?id=8c3e315d4296421cd26b3300ee0ac117f0877f20'/>
<id>8c3e315d4296421cd26b3300ee0ac117f0877f20</id>
<content type='text'>
When SYNC_STATE_ONLY support was added in commit 05ef983e0d65 ("driver
core: Add device link support for SYNC_STATE_ONLY flag"),
SYNC_STATE_ONLY links were treated similar to STATELESS links in terms
of not blocking consumer probe if the supplier hasn't probed yet.

That caused a SYNC_STATE_ONLY device link's status to not get updated.
Since SYNC_STATE_ONLY device link is no longer useful once the
consumer probes, commit 21c27f06587d ("driver core: Fix
SYNC_STATE_ONLY device link implementation") addresses the status
update issue by deleting the SYNC_STATE_ONLY device link instead of
complicating the status update code.

However, there are still some cases where we need to update the status
of a SYNC_STATE_ONLY device link. This is because a SYNC_STATE_ONLY
device link can later get converted into a normal MANAGED device link
when a normal MANAGED device link is created between a supplier and
consumer that already have a SYNC_STATE_ONLY device link between them.

If a SYNC_STATE_ONLY device link's status isn't maintained correctly
till it's converted to a normal MANAGED device link, then the normal
MANAGED device link will end up with a wrong link status. This can cause
a warning stack trace[1] when the consumer device probes successfully.

This commit fixes the SYNC_STATE_ONLY device link status update issue
where it wouldn't transition correctly from DL_STATE_DORMANT or
DL_STATE_AVAILABLE to DL_STATE_CONSUMER_PROBE. It also resets the status
back to DL_STATE_DORMANT or DL_STATE_AVAILABLE if the consumer probe
fails.

That variable is no longer necessary. Remove it and also fix a minor
typo in comments.

<title>driver core: Fix handling of SYNC_STATE_ONLY + STATELESS device links</title>

Commit 21c27f06587d ("driver core: Fix SYNC_STATE_ONLY device link
implementation") didn't completely fix STATELESS + SYNC_STATE_ONLY
handling.

What looks like an optimization in that commit is actually a bug that
causes an if condition to always take the else path. This prevents
reordering of devices in the dpm_list when a DL_FLAG_STATELESS device
link is create on top of an existing DL_FLAG_SYNC_STATE_ONLY device
link.

<content type='text'>
When SYNC_STATE_ONLY support was added in commit 05ef983e0d65 ("driver
core: Add device link support for SYNC_STATE_ONLY flag"),
device_link_add() incorrectly skipped adding the new SYNC_STATE_ONLY
device link to the supplier's and consumer's "device link" list.

This causes multiple issues:
- The device link is lost forever from driver core if the caller
  didn't keep track of it (caller typically isn't expected to). This is
  a memory leak.
- The device link is also never visible to any other code path after
  device_link_add() returns.

If we fix the "device link" list handling, that exposes a bunch of
issues.

1. The device link "status" state management code rightfully doesn't
handle the case where a DL_FLAG_MANAGED device link exists between a
supplier and consumer, but the consumer manages to probe successfully
before the supplier. The addition of DL_FLAG_SYNC_STATE_ONLY links break
this assumption. This causes device_links_driver_bound() to throw a
warning when this happens.

Since DL_FLAG_SYNC_STATE_ONLY device links are mainly used for creating
proxy device links for child device dependencies and aren't useful once
the consumer device probes successfully, this patch just deletes
DL_FLAG_SYNC_STATE_ONLY device links once its consumer device probes.
This way, we avoid the warning, free up some memory and avoid
complicating the device links "status" state management code.

2. Creating a DL_FLAG_STATELESS device link between two devices that
already have a DL_FLAG_SYNC_STATE_ONLY device link will result in the
DL_FLAG_STATELESS flag not getting set correctly. This patch also fixes
this.

Lastly, this patch also fixes minor whitespace issues.

<title>driver core: fw_devlink: Add support for batching fwnode parsing</title>

The amount of time spent parsing fwnodes of devices can become really
high if the devices are added in an non-ideal order. Worst case can be
O(N^2) when N devices are added. But this can be optimized to O(N) by
adding all the devices and then parsing all their fwnodes in one batch.

This commit adds fw_devlink_pause() and fw_devlink_resume() to allow
doing this.
