Hi All,

This is an update of

https://lore.kernel.org/linux-acpi/3616223.QJadu78ljV@rafael.j.wysocki/

adding one patch and updating one patch to fix the driver removal
code ordering.

This series is part of a larger effort to switch over all drivers using
the struct acpi_driver interface to the more common struct platform_driver
interface and eliminate the former.  The background is explained in
Documentation/driver-api/acpi/acpi-drivers.rst and in the changelog of
the patch that introduced the above document:

https://lore.kernel.org/all/2396510.ElGaqSPkdT@rafael.j.wysocki/

The bottom line is that the kernel would be better off without struct
acpi_driver and so it is better to get rid of it.

This series carries out driver conversion of the platform x86 Panasonic
hotkey and LCD brightness control driver.

Patch [1/4] fixes the rollback path in acpi_pcc_hotkey_add() and rearranges
the driver removal code ordering to match it.

Patch [2/4] removes some redundant checks from the driver.

Patch [3/4] updates the driver to install an ACPI notify handler by itself
instead of using the .notify() callback from struct acpi_driver, which is
requisite for the driver conversion.

Patch [4/4] converts the driver to using struct platform_driver for device
binding.

Thanks!

From: "Rafael J. Wysocki" <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com>

The rollback ordering in acpi_pcc_hotkey_add() is different from the
cleanup ordering in acpi_pcc_hotkey_remove().  Moreover, the latter
calls pcc_unregister_optd_notifier() unconditionally while the former
never calls it and the OPTD notifier is only registered if pcc->platform
is not NULL.

Address that by:
 * moving the pcc_register_optd_notifier() call after the device_create_file()
   return value check,
 * adding a new label to the acpi_pcc_hotkey_add() rollback code for
   pcc_register_optd_notifier() error handling,
 * moving the pcc_unregister_optd_notifier() call in acpi_pcc_hotkey_remove()
   before the removal of the cdpower sysfs attribute.

Also update pcc_register_optd_notifier() to return an error when
acpi_install_notify_handler() fails.

From: "Rafael J. Wysocki" <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com>

The device pointer cannot be NULL in acpi_pcc_hotkey_add() and
acpi_pcc_hotkey_remove() because these functions are ACPI driver
callbacks and NULL is never passed to any of them as an argument.

Likewise, acpi_pcc_hotkey_resume() is a resume callback of a
device driver and NULL is never passed to it as an argument, so
the dev pointer in it cannot be NULL.

Moreover, since acpi_pcc_hotkey_remove() and acpi_pcc_hotkey_resume()
can only run after acpi_pcc_hotkey_add() has completed successfully,
the acpi_driver_data() of the device object used by them cannot be
NULL when they run.

Drop all of the redundant NULL checks of the pointers mentioned above.

To facilitate subsequent conversion of the driver to a platform one,
make it install an ACPI notify handler directly instead of using
a .notify() callback in struct acpi_driver.

No intentional functional impact.

From: "Rafael J. Wysocki" <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com>

In all cases in which a struct acpi_driver is used for binding a driver
to an ACPI device object, a corresponding platform device is created by
the ACPI core and that device is regarded as a proper representation of
underlying hardware.  Accordingly, a struct platform_driver should be
used by driver code to bind to that device.  There are multiple reasons
why drivers should not bind directly to ACPI device objects [1].

Overall, it is better to bind drivers to platform devices than to their
ACPI companions, so convert the Panasonic laptop ACPI driver to a platform
one.

While this is not expected to alter functionality, it changes sysfs
layout and so it will be visible to user space.

To maintain backwards compatibility with possibly existing user space,
the sysfs attributes created by the driver under the ACPI device object
used by it are not relocated.  Accordingly, the driver will continue to
use the driver_data pointer in struct acpi_device which needs to be
cleared on driver removal.
