[PATCH 00/13 v2] Regulator ena_gpiod fixups

From: Linus Walleij
Date: Sat Dec 01 2018 - 10:44:02 EST


Here is a second iteration of these fixups after thinking
over Charles Keepax excellent comments on the first series
of fixes.

To make sure GPIO descriptors are never left dangling
(as far as I can tell!) I use this stepwise approach:

1. Fix the regulator_register() in the core to guarantee
that after calling this with a valid GPIO descriptor
in ena_gpiod it will be gpiod_put() if there is any
problem.

2. Fix up simple descriptor consumers to just gpiod_get()
and let the core take over the descriptor. Only handle
the errorpath up to this point.

3. Export gpiod_get_from_of_node() and let max77686
obtain a GPIO descriptor from the device tree without
any devres make-up in the DT parsing callback.

4. Invent devm_gpiod_unhinge() that will remove the devres
monitoring of a devm_* allocated GPIO descriptor
right before handling it over to the regulator core,
and use this in the otherwise hairy da9211,
s5m8767, tps65090 and s2mps11 drivers.

Linus Walleij (13):
