- kobject lock contention fixes from Eric Dumazet
- driver core cleanups from Andy
- kernfs rcu work from Tejun
- fw_devlink changes to resolve some reported issues

Provide functions to create and remove per device MSI domains which replace
the platform-MSI domains. The new model is that each of the devices which
utilize platform-MSI gets now its private MSI domain which is "customized"
in size and with a device specific function to write the MSI message into
the device.
This is the same functionality as platform-MSI but it avoids all the down
sides of platform MSI, i.e. the extra ID book keeping, the special data
structure in the msi descriptor. Further the domains are only created when
the devices are really in use, so the burden is on the usage and not on the
infrastructure.
Fill in the domain template and provide two functions to init/allocate and
remove a per device MSI domain.
Until all users and parent domain providers are converted, the init/alloc
function invokes the original platform-MSI code when the irqdomain which is
associated to the device does not provide MSI parent functionality yet.

Miquel reported a warning in the MSI core which is triggered when
interrupts are freed via platform_msi_device_domain_free().
This code got reworked to use core functions for freeing the MSI
descriptors, but nothing took care to clear the msi_desc->irq entry, which
then triggers the warning in msi_free_msi_desc() which uses desc->irq to
validate that the descriptor has been torn down. The same issue exists in
msi_domain_populate_irqs().
Up to the point that msi_free_msi_descs() grew a warning for this case,
this went un-noticed.
Provide the counterpart of msi_domain_populate_irqs() and invoke it in
platform_msi_device_domain_free() before freeing the interrupts and MSI
descriptors and also in the error path of msi_domain_populate_irqs().

The allocation code is overly complex. It tries to have the MSI index space
packed, which is not working when an interrupt is freed. There is no
requirement for this. The only requirement is that the MSI index is unique.
Move the MSI descriptor allocation into msi_domain_populate_irqs() and use
the Linux interrupt number as MSI index which fulfils the unique
requirement.
This requires to lock the MSI descriptors which makes the lock order
reverse to the regular MSI alloc/free functions vs. the domain
mutex. Assign a seperate lockdep class for these MSI device domains.

We have two flavours of platform-MSI:
- MSIs generated by devices for themselves (the usual case)
- MSIs generated on behalf of other devices, as the generating
device is some form of bridge (either a wire-to-MSI bridge,
or even a non-transparent PCI bridge that repaints the PCI
requester ID).
In the latter case, the underlying interrupt architecture may need
to track this in order to keep the mapping alive even when no MSI
are currently being generated.
Add a set of flags to the generic msi_alloc_info_t structure, as
well as the MSI_ALLOC_FLAGS_PROXY_DEVICE flag that will get
advertized by the platform-MSI code when allocating an irqdomain
for a device.

Since the addition of platform MSI support, there were two helpers
supposed to allocate/free IRQs for a device:
platform_msi_domain_alloc_irqs()
platform_msi_domain_free_irqs()
In these helpers, IRQ descriptors are allocated in the "alloc" routine
while they are freed in the "free" one.
Later, two other helpers have been added to handle IRQ domains on top
of MSI domains:
platform_msi_domain_alloc()
platform_msi_domain_free()
Seen from the outside, the logic is pretty close with the former
helpers and people used it with the same logic as before: a
platform_msi_domain_alloc() call should be balanced with a
platform_msi_domain_free() call. While this is probably what was
intended to do, the platform_msi_domain_free() does not remove/free
the IRQ descriptor(s) created/inserted in
platform_msi_domain_alloc().
One effect of such situation is that removing a module that requested
an IRQ will let one orphaned IRQ descriptor (with an allocated MSI
entry) in the device descriptors list. Next time the module will be
inserted back, one will observe that the allocation will happen twice
in the MSI domain, one time for the remaining descriptor, one time for
the new one. It also has the side effect to quickly overshoot the
maximum number of allocated MSI and then prevent any module requesting
an interrupt in the same domain to be inserted anymore.
This situation has been met with loops of insertion/removal of the
mvpp2.ko module (requesting 15 MSIs each time).

The irqdomain creation that is carried out in:
platform_msi_create_device_domain()
relies on the fwnode_handle interrupt controller token to associate the
interrupt controller with a specific irqdomain. Current code relies on
the OF layer to retrieve a fwnode_handle for the device representing the
interrupt controller from its device->of_node pointer. This makes
platform_msi_create_device_domain() DT specific whilst it really is not
because after the merge of commit f94277af03 ("of/platform: Initialise
dev->fwnode appropriately") the fwnode_handle can easily be retrieved
from the dev->fwnode pointer in a firmware agnostic way.
Update platform_msi_create_device_domain() to retrieve the interrupt
controller fwnode_handle from the dev->fwnode pointer so that it can
be used seamlessly in ACPI and DT systems.

We almost have all the needed bits requiredable to create a irq domain
on top of a MSI domain.
For this, we enable a few things:
- the virq is stored in the msi_desc
- device, msi_alloc_info and domain-specific data
are stored in the platform_priv_data structure
- we introduce a new API for platform-msi:
/* Create a MSI-based domain */
struct irq_domain *
platform_msi_create_device_domain(struct device *dev,
unsigned int nvec,
irq_write_msi_msg_t write_msi_msg,
const struct irq_domain_ops *ops,
void *host_data);
/* Allocate MSIs in an MSI domain */
int platform_msi_domain_alloc(struct irq_domain *domain,
unsigned int virq,
unsigned int nr_irqs);
/* Free MSIs from an MSI domain */
void platform_msi_domain_free(struct irq_domain *domain,
unsigned int virq,
unsigned int nvec);
/* Obtain the host data passed to platform_msi_create_device_domain */
void *platform_msi_get_host_data(struct irq_domain *domain);
platform_msi_create_device_domain() is a hybrid of irqdomain creation
and interrupt allocation, creating a domain backed by the MSIs associated
to a device. IRQs can then be allocated in that domain using
platform_msi_domain_alloc().
This now allows a wired irq to MSI bridge to be created.

With the msi_list and the msi_domain properties now being at the
generic device level, it is starting to be relatively easy to offer
a generic way of providing non-PCI MSIs.
The two major hurdles with this idea are:
- Lack of global ID that identifies a device: this is worked around by
having a global ID allocator for each device that gets enrolled in
the platform MSI subsystem
- Lack of standard way to write the message in the generating device.
This is solved by mandating driver code to provide a write_msg
callback, so that everyone can have their own square wheel
Apart from that, the API is fairly straightforward:
- platform_msi_create_irq_domain creates an MSI domain that gets
tagged with DOMAIN_BUS_PLATFORM_MSI
- platform_msi_domain_alloc_irqs allocate MSIs for a given device,
populating the msi_list
- platform_msi_domain_free_irqs does what is written on the tin
