[PATCH v3 1/2] mcb: remove is_added flag from mcb_device struct

From: Rodríguez Barbarin, José Javier
Date: Wed Sep 06 2023 - 07:49:48 EST


From: Jorge Sanjuan Garcia <jorge.sanjuangarcia@xxxxxxxxxx>

When calling mcb_bus_add_devices(), both mcb devices and the mcb
bus will attempt to attach a device to a driver because they share
the same bus_type. This causes an issue when trying to cast the
container of the device to mcb_device struct using to_mcb_device(),
leading to a wrong cast when the mcb_bus is added. A crash occurs
when freing the ida resources as the bus numbering of mcb_bus gets
confused with the is_added flag on the mcb_device struct.

The only reason for this cast was to keep an is_added flag on the
mcb_device struct that does not seem necessary. The function
device_attach() handles already bound devices and the mcb subsystem
does nothing special with this is_added flag so remove it completely.

Fixes: 18d288198099 ("mcb: Correctly initialize the bus's device")
