[PATCH 3/5] mmc: sdhci-pltfm: Do not use parent as the host's device

[Pawel Moll]

The code selecting a device for the sdhci host has been
continuously tweaked (4b711cb13843f5082e82970dd1e8031383134a65
"mmc: sdhci-pltfm: Add structure for host-specific data" and
a4d2177f00a5252d825236c5124bc1e9918bdb41 "mmc: sdhci-pltfm: dt
device does not pass parent to sdhci_alloc_host") while there
does not seem to be any reason to use platform device's parent
in the first place.

The comment saying "Some PCI-based MFD need the parent here"
seem to refer to Timberdale FPGA driver (the only MFD driver
registering SDHCI cell, drivers/mfd/timberdale.c) but again,
the only situation when parent device matter is runtime PM,
which is not implemented for Timberdale.

This patch is a part of effort to remove references to platform_bus
and make it static.

Chris, Anton, Ulf - could you please advise if the assumptions
above are correct or if I'm completely wrong? Do you know what
where the real reasons to use parent originally? The PCI comment
seems like a red herring to me...

Can I take the silence as a suggestion that the change looks ok-ish for
you?

Sorry for the delay. I suppose this make sense, but I really don't
know for sure.

I guess we need some testing in linux-next, to get some confidence.

Would you take it into -next then? Unless I'm completely wrong there
should be no impact on any in-tree driver...

I will take it; though I think it's best to queue it for 3.18 to get
some more testing.

[PATCH 3/5 v2] mmc: sdhci-pltfm: Do not use parent as the host's device

[Pawel Moll]

The code selecting a device for the sdhci host has been
continuously tweaked (4b711cb13843f5082e82970dd1e8031383134a65
"mmc: sdhci-pltfm: Add structure for host-specific data" and
a4d2177f00a5252d825236c5124bc1e9918bdb41 "mmc: sdhci-pltfm: dt
device does not pass parent to sdhci_alloc_host" while there
does not seem to be any reason to use platform device's parent
in the first place.

The comment saying "Some PCI-based MFD need the parent here"
seem to refer to Timberdale FPGA driver (the only MFD driver
registering SDHCI cell, drivers/mfd/timberdale.c) but again,
the only situation when parent device matter is runtime PM,
which is not implemented for Timberdale.

But not until 3.17-rc1 has been released.  linux-next should not receive
new material other than bug fixes while a merge window is open.
