[PATCH v2 00/11] fw_devlink improvements

[Saravana Kannan <saravanak@google.com>]

This patch series improves fw_devlink in the following ways:

1. It no longer cares about a fwnode having a "compatible" property. It
   figures this our more dynamically. The only expectation is that
   fwnode that are converted to devices actually get probed by a driver
   for the dependencies to be enforced correctly.

2. Finer grained dependency tracking. fw_devlink will now create device
   links from the consumer to the actual resource's device (if it has one,
   Eg: gpio_device) instead of the parent supplier device. This improves
   things like async suspend/resume ordering, potentially remove the need
   for frameworks to create device links, more parallelized async probing,
   and better sync_state() tracking.

3. Handle hardware/software quirks where a child firmware node gets
   populated as a device before its parent firmware node AND actually
   supplies a non-optional resource to the parent firmware node's
   device.

4. Way more robust at cycle handling (see patch for the insane cases).

5. Stops depending on OF_POPULATED to figure out some corner cases.

6. Simplifies the work that needs to be done by the firmware specific
   code.

Sorry it took a while to roll in the fixes I gave in the v1 series
thread[1] into a v2 series.

Since I didn't make any additional changes on top of what I already gave
in the v1 thread and Dmitry is very eager to get this series going, I'm
sending it out without testing locally. I already tested these patches a
few months ago as part of the v1 series. So I don't expect any major
issues. I'll test them again on my end in the next few days and will
report here if I actually find anything wrong.

Tony, Naresh, Abel, Sudeep, Geert,

I got the following reviewed by's and tested by's a few months back, but
it's been 5 months since I sent out v1. So I wasn't sure if it was okay
to include them in the v2 commits. Let me know if you are okay with this
being included in the commits and/or if you want to test this series
again.

Dmitry, Maxim(s), Miquel, Luca, Doug, Colin, Martin, Jean-Philippe,

I've Cc-ed you because I had pointed you to v1 of this series + the
patches in that thread at one point or another as a fix to some issue
you were facing. It'd appreciate it if you can test this series and
report any issues, or things it fixed and give Tested-bys.

In addition, if you can also apply a revert of this series[2] and delete
driver_deferred_probe_check_state() from your tree and see if you hit
any issues and report them, that'd be great too! I'm pretty sure some of
you will hit issues with that. I want to fix those next and then
revert[2].

Thanks,
Saravana

v1 -> v2:
- Fixed Patch 1 to handle a corner case discussed in [3].
- New patch 10 to handle "fsl,imx8mq-gpc" being initialized by 2 drivers.
- New patch 11 to add fw_devlink support for SCMI devices.
