Linus Torvalds 36808d5e98 Driver core changes for 7.2-rc1
- deferred probe:
   - Fix race where deferred probe timeout work could be permanently
     canceled by using mod_delayed_work()
   - Fix missing jiffies conversion in deferred_probe_extend_timeout()
   - Guard timeout extension with delayed_work_pending() to prevent
     premature firing
   - Use system_percpu_wq instead of the deprecated system_wq
   - Update deferred_probe_timeout documentation
 
 - device:
   - Replace direct struct device bitfield access (can_match, dma_iommu,
     dma_skip_sync, dma_ops_bypass, state_synced, dma_coherent,
     of_node_reused, offline, offline_disabled) with flag-based
     accessors using bit operations
   - Reject devices with unregistered buses
   - Delete unused DEVICE_ATTR_PREALLOC()
   - Add low-level device attribute macros with const show/store
     callbacks, allowing device attributes to reside in read-only memory
   - Move core device attributes to read-only memory
   - Constify group array pointers in driver_add_groups() /
     driver_remove_groups(), struct bus_type, and struct device_driver
 
 - device property:
   - Fix fwnode reference leak in fwnode_graph_get_endpoint_by_id()
   - Initialize all fields of fwnode_handle in fwnode_init()
   - Provide swnode_get()/swnode_put() wrappers around kobject_get/put()
   - Allow passing struct software_node_ref_args pointers directly to
     PROPERTY_ENTRY_REF()
 
 - driver_override:
   - Migrate amba, cdx, vmbus, and rpmsg to the generic driver_override
     infrastructure, fixing a UAF from unsynchronized access to
     driver_override in bus match() callbacks
   - Remove the now-unused driver_set_override()
 
 - firmware loader:
   - Fix recursive lock deadlock in device_cache_fw_images() when async
     work falls back to synchronous execution
   - Fix device reference leak in firmware_upload_register()
 
 - platform:
   - Pass KBUILD_MODNAME through the platform driver registration macro
     to create module symlinks in sysfs for built-in drivers; move
     module_kset initialization to a pure_initcall and tegra cbb
     registration to core_initcall to ensure correct ordering
   - Pass THIS_MODULE implicitly through a coresight_init_driver() macro
 
 - sysfs:
   - Upgrade OOB write detection in sysfs_kf_seq_show() from printk to
     WARN
   - Add return value clamping to sysfs_kf_read()
 
 - Rust:
   - ACPI:
     - Fix missing match data for PRP0001 by exporting
       acpi_of_match_device()
 
   - Auxiliary:
     - Replace drvdata() with dedicated registration data on
       auxiliary_device. drvdata() exposed the driver's bus device
       private data beyond the driver's own scope, creating ordering
       constraints and forcing the data to outlive all registrations
       that access it. Registration data is instead scoped structurally
       to the Registration object, making lifecycle ordering enforced
       by construction rather than convention.
 
   - Rust-native device driver lifetimes (HRT):
     - Allow Rust device drivers to carry a lifetime parameter on their
       bus device private data, tied to the device binding scope -- the
       interval during which a bus device is bound to a driver. Device
       resources like pci::Bar<'a> and IoMem<'a> can be stored directly
       in the driver's bus device private data with a lifetime bounded
       by the binding scope, so the compiler enforces at build time that
       they do not outlive the binding. This removes Devres indirection
       from every access site and eliminates try_access() failure paths
       in destructors.
 
       Bus driver traits use a Generic Associated Type (GAT)
       Data<'bound> to introduce the lifetime on the private data,
       rather than parameterizing the Driver trait itself. Auxiliary
       registration data, where the lifetime is not introduced by a
       trait callback but must be threaded through Registration, uses
       the ForLt trait (a type-level abstraction for types generic over
       a lifetime).
 
 - Misc:
   - Fix DT overlayed devices not probing by reverting the broken
     treewide overlay fix and re-running fw_devlink consumer pickup when
     an overlay is applied to a bound device
   - Use root_device_register() for faux bus root device; add sanity
     check for failed bus init
   - Fix dev_has_sync_state() data race with READ_ONCE() and move it to
     base.h
   - Avoid spurious device_links warning when removing a device while
     its supplier is unbinding
   - Switch ISA bus to dynamic root device
   - Fix suspicious RCU usage in kernfs_put()
   - Remove devcoredump exit callback
   - Constify devfreq_event_class
