devtmpfs: remove return value of devtmpfs_delete_node()

2023-02-11T08:45:59Z

The only caller of device_del() does not check the return value. And there's nothing we can do when cleaning things up on a remove path. Let's make it a void function.

driver core: create bus_is_registered()

2023-02-09T09:43:35Z

A local function to the driver core to determine if a bus really is registered with the kernel or not. To be used only by the driver core code, as part of the driver registration path as it's not really "safe" because the bus could be unregistered instantly after being called. Cc: "Rafael J.

driver core: add local subsys_get and subsys_put functions

2023-02-09T09:42:57Z

We need to control the reference count of the subsys private structure instead of directly manipulating the kset reference count of it, so wrap that logic up in a subsys_get() and subsys_put() function to make it more obvious as to what is happening.

driver core: bus: move lock_class_key into dynamic structure

2023-02-01T19:03:18Z

Move the lock_class_key structure out of struct bus_type and into the dynamic structure we create already for all bus_types registered with the kernel. This saves on static space and removes one more writable field in struct bus_type. In the future, the same field can be moved out of the struct class logic because it shares this same private structure. Most everyone will never notice this change, as lockdep is not enabled in real systems so no memory or logic changes are happening for them. Cc: "Rafael J. Wysocki" Acked-by: Rafael J.

driver core: device_get_devnode() should take a const *

2023-01-27T12:45:40Z

device_get_devnode() should take a constant * to struct device as it does not modify it in any way, so modify the function definition to do this and move it out of device.h as it does not need to be exposed to the whole kernel tree.

driver core: bus: move bus notifier logic into bus.c

2023-01-18T08:00:48Z

The logic to touch the bus notifier was open-coded in numberous places in the driver core. Clean that up by creating a local bus_notify() function and have everyone call this function instead, making the reading of the caller code simpler and easier to maintain over time.

driver core: change to_subsys_private() to use container_of_const()

2023-01-11T15:10:09Z

The macro to_subsys_private() needs to switch to using container_of_const() as it turned out to being incorrectly casting a const pointer to a non-const one. Make this change and fix up the one offending user to be correctly handling a const pointer properly. Cc: "Rafael J. Wysocki" Reviewed-by: Rafael J.
