Commit Message

Linus Walleij Feb. 8, 2016, 2:32 p.m. UTC
GPIO chips have been around for years, but were never real devices,
instead they were piggy-backing on a parent device (such as a
platform_device or amba_device) but this was always optional.
GPIO chips could also exist without any device at all, with its
struct device *dev pointer being set to null.

When sysfs was in use, a mock device would be created, with the
optional parent assigned, or just floating orphaned with NULL
as parent.

For a proper userspace ABI we need gpiochips to *always have a
populated struct device, so add this in the gpio_chip struct.
The name "dev" is unfortunately already take so we use "device"
to name it.

If sysfs is active, it will use this device as parent, and the
former parent device "dev" will be set as parent of the new
"device" struct member.

From this point on, gpiochips are devices.

ChangeLog v2->v3:
- Implement the local state container struct gpio_device
  that can be left dangling around until userspace release
  us, as suggested by Dmitry.
- Since we already have a list for gpio_chips, repurpose
  this list to hold gpio_device:s instead of gpio_chip:s,
  and refactor accordingly.
- If no vocal protests emerge, I plan to merge this now.
ChangeLog v1->v2:
- Rebased on the patch that renames all .dev instances to
  .parent in the struct gpio_chip. The actual GPIO device
  is now the .dev member.
- Fixed up error handling of ida_simple_get().
- Fixed some indentation.

Bah old comment. Stripping it, and merging these patches.

Yours,
