Software nodes are currently initialized in a function registered as
a postcore_initcall(). However, some devices may want to register
software nodes earlier than that (or also in a postcore_initcall() where
they're at the mercy of the link order). Move the initialization to
driver_init() making swnode available much earlier as well as making
their initialization time deterministic.

This reverts commit dc23806a7c ("driver core: enforce device_lock for
driver_match_device()") and commit 289b14592c ("driver core: fix
inverted "locked" suffix of driver_match_device()").
While technically correct, there is a major downside to this approach:
When a device is already present in the system and a driver is
registered on the same bus, we iterate over all devices registered on
this bus to see if one of them matches. If we come across an already
bound one where the corresponding driver crashed while holding the
device lock (e.g. in probe()) we can't make any progress anymore.
However, drivers are typically the least tested code in the kernel and
hence it is a case that is likely to happen regularly. Besides hurting
developer ergonomics, it potentially decreases chances of shutting
things down cleanly and obtaining logs in production environments as
well [1].
This came up in the context of a firewire bug, which only in combination
with the reverted commit, caused the machine to hang [2]. Additionally,
it was observed in [3].
Thus, revert commit dc23806a7c ("driver core: enforce device_lock for
driver_match_device()") and add a brief note clarifying that an
implementer of struct bus_type must not expect match() to be called with
the device lock held.

Currently, driver_match_device() is called from three sites. One site
(__device_attach_driver) holds device_lock(dev), but the other two
(bind_store and __driver_attach) do not. This inconsistency means that
bus match() callbacks are not guaranteed to be called with the lock
held.
Fix this by introducing driver_match_device_locked(), which guarantees
holding the device lock using a scoped guard. Replace the unlocked calls
in bind_store() and __driver_attach() with this new helper. Also add a
lock assertion to driver_match_device() to enforce this guarantee.
This consistency also fixes a known race condition. The driver_override
implementation relies on the device_lock, so the missing lock led to the
use-after-free (UAF) reported in Bugzilla for buses using this field.
Stress testing the two newly locked paths for 24 hours with
CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING and CONFIG_LOCKDEP enabled showed no UAF recurrence
and no lockdep warnings.

In C dev_get_drvdata() has specific requirements under which it is valid
to access the returned pointer. That is, drivers have to ensure that
(1) for the duration the returned pointer is accessed the driver is
bound and remains to be bound to the corresponding device,
(2) the returned void * is treated according to the driver's private
data type, i.e. according to what has been passed to
dev_set_drvdata().
In Rust, (1) can be ensured by simply requiring the Bound device
context, i.e. provide the drvdata() method for Device<Bound> only.
For (2) we would usually make the device type generic over the driver
type, e.g. Device<T: Driver>, where <T as Driver>::Data is the type of
the driver's private data.
However, a device does not have a driver type known at compile time and
may be bound to multiple drivers throughout its lifetime.
Hence, in order to be able to provide a safe accessor for the driver's
device private data, we have to do the type check on runtime.
This is achieved by letting a driver assert the expected type, which is
then compared to a type hash stored in struct device_private when
dev_set_drvdata() is called.
Example:
// `dev` is a `&Device<Bound>`.
let data = dev.drvdata::<SampleDriver>()?;
There are two aspects to note:
(1) Technically, the same check could be achieved by comparing the
struct device_driver pointer of struct device with the struct
device_driver pointer of the driver struct (e.g. struct
pci_driver).
However, this would - in addition the pointer comparison - require
to tie back the private driver data type to the struct
device_driver pointer of the driver struct to prove correctness.
Besides that, accessing the driver struct (stored in the module
structure) isn't trivial and would result into horrible code and
API ergonomics.
(2) Having a direct accessor to the driver's private data is not
commonly required (at least in Rust): Bus callback methods already
provide access to the driver's device private data through a &self
argument, while other driver entry points such as IRQs,
workqueues, timers, IOCTLs, etc. have their own private data with
separate ownership and lifetime.
In other words, a driver's device private data is only relevant
for driver model contexts (such a file private is only relevant
for file contexts).
Having that said, the motivation for accessing the driver's device
private data with Device<Bound>::drvdata() are interactions between
drivers. For instance, when an auxiliary driver calls back into its
parent, the parent has to be capable to derive its private data from the
corresponding device (i.e. the parent of the auxiliary device).

Device links with DL_FLAG_SYNC_STATE_ONLY should not affect system
suspend and resume, and functions like device_reorder_to_tail() and
device_link_add() don't try to reorder the consumers with that flag.
However, dpm_wait_for_consumers() and dpm_wait_for_suppliers() don't
check thas flag before triggering dpm_wait(), leading to potential hang
during suspend/resume.
This can be reproduced on MT8186 Corsola Chromebook with devicetree like:
usb-a-connector {
compatible = "usb-a-connector";
port {
usb_a_con: endpoint {
remote-endpoint = <&usb_hs>;
};
};
};
usb_host {
compatible = "mediatek,mt8186-xhci", "mediatek,mtk-xhci";
port {
usb_hs: endpoint {
remote-endpoint = <&usb_a_con>;
};
};
};
In this case, the two nodes form a cycle and a SYNC_STATE_ONLY devlink
between usb_host (supplier) and usb-a-connector (consumer) is created.
Address this by exporting device_link_flag_is_sync_state_only() and
making dpm_wait_for_consumers() and dpm_wait_for_suppliers() use it
when deciding if dpm_wait() should be called.

In the match() callback, the struct device_driver * should not be
changed, so change the function callback to be a const *. This is one
step of many towards making the driver core safe to have struct
device_driver in read-only memory.
Because the match() callback is in all busses, all busses are modified
to handle this properly. This does entail switching some container_of()
calls to container_of_const() to properly handle the constant *.
For some busses, like PCI and USB and HV, the const * is cast away in
the match callback as those busses do want to modify those structures at
this point in time (they have a local lock in the driver structure.)
That will have to be changed in the future if they wish to have their
struct device * in read-only-memory.

Since commit 43a7206b09 ("driver core: class: make class_register() take
a const *"), the driver core allows for struct class to be in read-only
memory, so move the block_class structure to be declared at build time
placing it into read-only memory, instead of having to be dynamically
allocated at boot time.

When a dev_t is set in a struct device, an symlink in /sys/dev/ is
created for it either under /sys/dev/block/ or /sys/dev/char/ depending
on the device type.
The logic to determine this would trigger off of the class of the
object, and the kobj_type set in that location. But it turns out that
this deep nesting isn't needed at all, as it's either a choice of block
or "everything else" which is a char device. So make the logic a lot
more simple and obvious, and remove the incorrect comments in the code
that tried to document something that was not happening at all (it is
impossible to set class->dev_kobj to NULL as the class core prevented
that from happening.
This removes the only place that class->dev_kobj was being used, so
after this, it can be removed entirely.

There are a number of places in core.c that need access to the private
subsystem structure of struct class, so move them to use
class_to_subsys() instead of accessing it directly.
This requires exporting class_to_subsys() out of class.c, but keeping it
local to the driver core.

If the file is written to and sync_state() hasn't been called for the
device yet, then call sync_state() for the device independent of the
state of its consumers.
This is useful for supplier devices that have one or more consumers that
don't have a driver but the consumers are in a state that don't use the
resources supplied by the supplier device.
This gives finer grained control than using the
fw_devlink.sync_state=timeout kernel commandline parameter.

When all devices that could probe have finished probing (based on
deferred_probe_timeout configuration or late_initcall() when
!CONFIG_MODULES), this parameter controls what to do with devices that
haven't yet received their sync_state() calls.
fw_devlink.sync_state=strict is the default and the driver core will
continue waiting on all consumers of a device to probe successfully
before sync_state() is called for the device. This is the default
behavior since calling sync_state() on a device when all its consumers
haven't probed could make some systems unusable/unstable. When this
option is selected, we also print the list of devices that haven't had
sync_state() called on them by the time all devices the could probe have
finished probing.
fw_devlink.sync_state=timeout will cause the driver core to give up
waiting on consumers and call sync_state() on any devices that haven't
yet received their sync_state() calls. This option is provided for
systems that won't become unusable/unstable as they might be able to
save power (depends on state of hardware before kernel starts) if all
devices get their sync_state().

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.

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.
