Re: [PATCH v4 08/12] i3c: dw-i3c-master: Add a quirk to skip clock and reset

[sashiko-bot@kernel.org]

Thank you for your contribution! Sashiko AI review found 2 potential issue(s) to consider:

Pre-existing issues:
- [High] Type confusion when an ACPI device binds via PRP0001, causing memory addresses to be cast to hardware quirk flags.
- [High] Double disable of clocks during driver unbind if the device is runtime suspended.

i3c: dw-i3c-master: Add a quirk to skip clock and reset

Some ACPI-enumerated devices like Tegra410 do not have clock and reset
resources exposed via the clk/reset frameworks. Unlike device tree,
ACPI on Arm does not model such provider functions.

[Severity: High]
This is a pre-existing issue, but can this cast cause a type confusion if an
ACPI device uses the PRP0001 HID to bind via OF-style matching?

In that scenario, has_acpi_companion() evaluates to true, but
device_get_match_data() returns a pointer to the OF match data (like struct
dw_i3c_drvdata). Casting this pointer directly to an unsigned long would
interpret the memory address as a quirk bitmask, potentially enabling quirks
randomly depending on the kernel's memory layout.

[Severity: High]
This is a pre-existing issue, but does using devm_clk_get_enabled() risk a
double-disable during driver unbind if the device is runtime suspended?

If the device is in the RPM_SUSPENDED state when dw_i3c_common_remove() runs,
the clock has already been disabled by the runtime_suspend callback. Because
the remove function calls pm_runtime_disable() without first waking the
device up via pm_runtime_get_sync(), the subsequent automatic devres cleanup
will call clk_disable_unprepare() a second time on the already disabled clock.
