Linus Torvalds c6c3c5704b Driver core update for 5.15-rc1
Here is the big set of driver core patches for 5.15-rc1.
 
 These do change a number of different things across different
 subsystems, and because of that, there were 2 stable tags created that
 might have already come into your tree from different pulls that did the
 following
 	- changed the bus remove callback to return void
 	- sysfs iomem_get_mapping rework
 
 The latter one will cause a tiny merge issue with your tree, as there
 was a last-minute fix for this in 5.14 in your tree, but the fixup
 should be "obvious".  If you want me to provide a fixed merge for this,
 please let me know.
 
 Other than those two things, there's only a few small things in here:
 	- kernfs performance improvements for huge numbers of sysfs
 	  users at once
 	- tiny api cleanups
 	- other minor changes
 
 All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
 problems, other than the before-mentioned merge issue.

TODO

Broadcom introduced new bus as replacement for older SSB. It is based on AMBA,
however from programming point of view there is nothing AMBA specific we use.

Standard AMBA drivers are platform specific, have hardcoded addresses and use
AMBA standard fields like CID and PID.

In case of Broadcom's cards every device consists of:
1) Broadcom specific AMBA device. It is put on AMBA bus, but can not be treated
   as standard AMBA device. Reading it's CID or PID can cause machine lockup.
2) AMBA standard devices called ports or wrappers. They have CIDs (AMBA_CID)
   and PIDs (0x103BB369), but we do not use that info for anything. One of that
   devices is used for managing Broadcom specific core.

Addresses of AMBA devices are not hardcoded in driver and have to be read from
EPROM.

In this situation we decided to introduce separated bus. It can contain up to
16 devices identified by Broadcom specific fields: manufacturer, id, revision
and class.
