When setting new_id of a PCI device driver using sysfs a lockdep splat
occurs. This is because new_id_store() builds a temporary pci_dev for
pci_match_device(), which calls device_match_driver_override(). That
depends on the driver_override.lock added by cb3d1049f4 ("driver core:
generalize driver_override in struct device").
The new driver_override.lock was not initialized in the temporary pci_dev,
resulting in this lockdep splat.
Initialize the temporary pci_dev to fix this.
Repro:
Build with CONFIG_LOCKDEP=y, boot with QEMU, and add a new ID:
# echo "8086 10f5" > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/e1000e/new_id
INFO: trying to register non-static key.
The code is fine but needs lockdep annotation, or maybe
you didn't initialize this object before use?
turning off the locking correctness validator.
