Subject: [PATCH 12/23] gpiolib: Add revocable provider handle for struct gpio_chip
Date: Fri, 16 Jan 2026 08:10:25 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260116081036.352286-13-tzungbi@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260116081036.352286-1-tzungbi@kernel.org>
The underlying chip can be removed asynchronously. `gdev->srcu` is used
to ensure the synchronization before accessing `gdev->chip`.
Revocable encapsulates the details in a neat way. Add revocable
provider handle for the corresponding struct gpio_chip in struct
gpio_device so that we can start to hide the synchronization details.
