Link to RFC:
* https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20240123-fix-device-links-overlays-v1-1-9e4f6acaab6c@analog.com/
Changes since RFC:
* Use a dedicated workqueue to remove devlinks;
* Flush the devlink workqueue before checking the of_node refcount
value.
The following series is the result of the discussion I had with Rafael.
To sum up the fundamental issue, device links drop their refcounts
asynchronously and that means that the of_node refcount associated with
the device will also be dropped asynchronously. Now, in
__of_changeset_entry_destroy(), the assumption is that the node refcount
must be 1 and that cannot be guaranteed given the above.
I'm pasting again the link of the first time I exposed the issue where
one can see the resulps (big splat) of failing DT assumption:

Let's use a dedicated queue for devlinks since releasing a link happens
asynchronously but some code paths, like DT overlays, have some
expectations regarding the of_node when being removed (the refcount must
be 1). Given how devlinks are released that cannot be assured. Hence, add a
dedicated queue so that it's easy to sync against devlinks removal.
While at it, make sure to explicitly include <linux/workqueue.h>.

Device links will drop their supplier + consumer refcounts
asynchronously. That means that the refcount of the of_node attached to
these devices will also be dropped asynchronously and so we cannot
guarantee the DT overlay assumption that the of_node refcount must be 1 in
__of_changeset_entry_destroy().
Given the above, call the new fwnode_links_flush_queue() helper to flush
the devlink workqueue so we can be sure that all links are dropped before
doing the proper checks.

This is a bit drastic.
I think that device links can still work if devlink_release_queue is
NULL, just devlink_dev_release() needs to check it and release
synchronously if it is NULL.
Apart from this LGTM.

Agreed, I'll do that way. It will always synchronously remove the links (which is
different than before) but I guess that failing in allocating the queue is rather
unlikely.
